Internet Explorer Window Size

[Wayne]

I know that I can force IE6 to open with a maximized window by changing the
setting in its shortcut properties, but how can I force a maximized window
when I open IE6 by clicking on a URL or Start/Favorites?

TIA

How to resize small windows

Note for Internet Explorer Users: The latest explorer seems to open all
subsequent windows into a "small size", which you must then maximize or
enlarge. I found a fix for this searching the Usenet newsgroups.:

Start IE, right click any URL and select Open in a New Window.
Go back to the first IE window you opened and close it.
Return to the second window and manually drag it to fill the screen.
(Do not use the maximize button)
Close this second window, using the close box.
All IE5 windows should now open as maximized as you positioned your second
window.

or...................

For your small screen, if you have already tried the maximize, by clicking
on the center tab open the upper right corner of the screen, then do the
following:

Pass the cursor over the right side of the screen until you get a two ended
arrow <--->, then hold the left mouse button down and drag the edge of the
screen to the right as far as you want it. Then do the same on all the other
sides
until it fills the screen. Then close the Explorer and see it the screen is
now fully open

I've just installed IE New Window Maximizer and I think it has some great
features, just in case you haven't tried it.

Thanks again...
