Some times i cant delete *.avi files in Windows. I get a
message that the file is in use by an other program. Is
there any way to force a delete of this file??

In IE when the windows is maximize and i want to open a
link in a new windows, this new windows is just half a
size of the maximized window. Is there any way to make
this windows opens maximized??

Thansk in advanced for answares!

Have you tried coming up in "Safe Mode" to erase the files?
Be sure to check the file attributes (right-click /
properties) to make sure they are not hidden or protected,
as well.

If a process has requested a lock on a file from Windows there's virtually
nothing you can do about it short of finding a way to make that other
program release its lock (usually by shutting it down, preferably cleanly).

No, sorry. This is something users have asked for for a long time and we
still haven't gotten it. You can, however, control the (non-maximized) size
of the IE window by sizing it the way you want it and then closing it while
holding down the Shift key. Of course, sooner or later some stupid web site
or program is going to open an IE window at a different size and you'll be
back at square one....
