opening IE

[Greg]

question, when I open IE or click a link in an open IE
window, I get a link on the toolbar and the upper frame,
but not the window. To open the window I have to click
the maximize button on the upper frame? any
suggestions???

You need to create a full screen window when you create a link.

Click on a link to open a second browser window. Drag the corners of the new
window to full screen. Close the first browser first, second browser second.
Or
Modify the registry key HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet
Explorer\Main\FullScreen REG_SZ to "yes".

From http://www.fjsmjs.com/OE/nolinks.htm

1. Click Start, and then click Run.

2. In the Open box, type:

regsvr32 urlmon.dll

3. Click OK, and then click OK again when you receive the following message:

DllRegisterServer in urlmon.dll succeeded.


4. If that doesn't fix it, see this article:

You can also try this:

Go to Start/run, and type SFC (SFC /SCANNOW for Win2K or WinXP).
Choose 'Extract One File From Installation Disk'.
Type oleaut32.dll, not worrying about its location. Then, click Start.

Next to 'Restore From', type in or browse for the file's location, which is
probably in the Win98 folder of your installation CD-ROM (typically
D:\Win98), or in your Windows\Options\Cabs folder, as the case may be.

Then, next to 'Save File In', enter C:\Windows\System, and click OK. System
File Checker looks for the file, saves it as you requested, and then tells
you that 'the file has been successfully extracted'.

You may need to reboot.
