IE opend in small window

[Dave]

When I open IE6 it now opens in a smaller sized window.
How do I set it to open in a larger window

Dave,
Close all instances of Internet Explorer except for one.
Right-click on a link in the page and select: "Open in New Window"
Close the first browser window using the [ X ] (upper right corner)
Resize the second browser window manually by dragging the sides to the
desired size.
Note: Do NOT click the Maximize button, you *must* do it manually.
Hold down the Ctrl key and click the Close button (upper right)
Visit another web site, open a link in a new "window", it should now be the
desired size.
Note: some pop-up browser windows will alter this process if that is the
last one closed.
If that occurs again, you now can resolve this problem.

[Exception]
In some cases the "Remember last window size" info becomes corrupted in the
Registry.

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main]
"Window_Placement"=

Right-click on "Window_Placement" and select: Delete
Note: Remember to Export the key before editing.

When all else fails, paste the below line into Start | Run
javascript:window.open(screen.availWidth,screen.availHeight)

Then make *sure* the above window is the last one closed.

Window settings are setting themselfe as I heard some time
ago. They will set again after some time. I know that won't
help but thats sad but true.
I got the same problem after a Popup in 200x100px opened.
After that the settings set new after about 3 days, when I
shut down IE with a full window.

Dave,

1. Open a link.
2. Don't use the maximize button.
3. Stretch the edges/corners so that the window fills the screen.
4. Close all other IE windows.
5. Close the stretched window last.

Best option is to use "IE NEw Window maximizer"

Open one instance of IE and resize it to your desired size. While pressing
the Control key (Ctrl) click the close window button on the top right hand
corner of the window (X)
