I'm not sure what I did, but now on some web pages I open the contents of the
page are shrunk to only fill about 1/2 of the window. The pages used to load
fine and filled up the entire window.

suggestions???
 
Hi Emily :-)

Take a look at the information here and see if it helps:

Webpages not fully loading - only partically visible

Partial Web Page Is Rendered When HTTP Stream Terminates Early
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=226550
Information on why it happens and some download links.
Some Images, Contents, or Controls May Not Be Displayed When Viewing a Web
Page
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=221134
HTML Pages Only Partially Appear, HTML Pages Do Not Appear, or the Network
Stops Responding
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/823386

Check in IE>Tools>Internet Options>General>Accessibility
and
Control Panel>Accessibility Options>Display

For normal viewing nothing should be checked in these sections. Also check
the setting in Control Panel>Accessibility Options>Display is set to Windows
Standard and make sure the High Contrast is not checked.

Window Display too small

and possibly

also…

Remove Auto-Hide
http://www.fjsmjs.com/IE/offpos.htm

Remove any 'Auto-hide' option for the Windows taskbar and while the window
is maximized, resize the taskbar then return it to the desired size. This is
to try to make Windows re-calculate the window size and boundaries.

If no joy, run regedit and remove these registry key values:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main\window_placement

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet
Explorer\Desktop\OldWorkAreas\OldWorkAreaRects

Then reboot.


Hope this helps :-)
