Is there a way to maximize all popups opened with Internet Explorer
without having to downoad any third-party software?

Probably not, but try this:
Windows remembers the size of the last Normal IE window closed.
Open such a link.
Don't use the maximize button.
Stretch the edges/corners so that the window fills the screen.
Close all other IE windows.
Close the stretched window.

If that doesn't do it try the REG file here:

Many popups define the window size. Always make sure that the last IE
window closed is the size you want.

That would help if there was actually an arrow that showed up... I'm talking
about IE7 which I asked for help to resize, which you never came back to me
to explain why it has no arrows and forces me to have small portrait shaped
box for my small landscape shaped pictures????

1. I answered a post from teejayem, not from you.
2. To do what I said, hover the mouse cursor over the edge of the window so
that it becomes a double arrow, hold down the left arrow and drag it.
3. teejayem didn't mention IE7, but this works for IE7 anyway.
4. Here is teejayem's message, which you clipped so that you could pretend I
was answering you:

5. If you want better answers for IE7 questions please see:
