Position of browser

[Guest]

I have Windows XP with 4 users. Only 1 user has this
problem. When maximized, the Internet Explorer browser
window sits about 1/4" down on the screen; that is about
1/4" of the desktop shows and the browser's status bar
cannot be seen. When clicking "Restore Down", the browser
is fine. Any suggestions how to fix this?

Try this fix.

Internet Explorer Calculates the Web Page Window Size Incorrectly
When you create Web pages, the screen-size calculation that is used to
determine child window locations (and other items in a parent window) may be
incorrect. This may cause child windows (and other items in a parent window)
in an HTML page to appear off center, or to appear incorrectly in the parent
window of an HTML page.

Sandi Hardmeier has the standard solution for this.
Prevent your Task bar from Auto-hiding; then drag it up.
A maximized window will be resized to fill the remaining area.
