ie v6.0.2800.1106.xpsp2.030422-1633IC

for some reason my internet explorer has started opening up half-sized
horizontally (as if i had re-sized the window)

how can i configure internet explorer so that it opens maximized?
 
grab the corners and drag to the size you want it to open to, and then close
it. When it opens again, it will retain that new size and position.
 
Hi Chuck, thanks for the response.

Yes, I know that it's supposed to remember its size. But something keeps on
making it half-size again.

1) Right-click on the icon you use to launch Internet Explorer
2) Choose "Properties"
3) Select the "Shortcut" tab
4) Select "Maximized" from the drop-down list next to "Run:"

You will have to repeat this for each shortcut you use to launch Internet
Explorer.

and then
close

You might have pop under Internet Explorer windows which you close
after you close the visible Internet Explorer window. Internet
Explorer remembers the size and position of the last window closed.
