How can I set a new window to always open full screen? Example, when I
open a page it is where I've set it; full screen. If I click a link within
that page, the new window opens at the default small size.
 
Well thanks but that link is archaic and doesn't have an answer. I also
posted to 3 groups as I wasn't sure if it was a Vista problem or an IE7
problem.
 
Vista - IE7 and no these are actual web pages not pop-ups. I see PA Bear is
in a bad mood ;-)

Click to expand...

Windows remembers the size of the last Normal IE window closed.
Open such a link.
Don't use the maximize button.
Stretch the edges/corners so that the window fills the screen.
Close all other IE windows.
Close the stretched window.

If that doesn't do it try the REG file here:

Sorry, I didn't find it the first time you posted the link. My eyesight
isn't that good but now I see it, thanks.
