How to reset size of browser window

[Guest]

Hi, have visited a page and participated on a poll (www.sapo.pt). However,
the stupid programmer who made the poll make it opens on a new window, which
resizes it-self to match the poll size (instead of having already that size,
it starts the "normal" size and then shrinks).
Problem: now everytime I open the browser the window has that same small
size. Is there any way to reset whatever information that script placed on my
browser?
Thank you for your time

Hi,
Open a webpage. Stretch it out to fullsize. Don't use maximize.
Choose any link on that webpage and right-click> open in a new window.
Stretch that second window out to the desired size- don't use maximize.
Close the first IE window. Then close that second resized window.

If unsuccessful with that, see http://windowsxp.mvps.org/IEFAQ.htm#IEMax
Download and run (merge) the REG file.

Hope this helps,

Hello,

You can also use the Quero Launcher to customize the appearance of the IE
window (size, position, chrome, etc.) and to save the settings in a
shortcut.

http://www.quero.at/launcher.php

You can then open IE from that shortcut to restore your default window size
for example.

Thank you Don Varnau, it solved my problem. I would rate your reply, but the
link provided by the notification e-mail doesn't work, and I can't see a link

You're welcome. And, reading or posting to the Microsoft newsgroups is a
much more pleasant experienc if you use Outlook Express or another NNTP
newsreader.
