I don't know if this is the right group but I am wondering how to get all my
favorites to open in a maximized window. Everytime I open a new IE window
from a favorite (on my start menu) it does not open maximized. I can
stretch the window by sizing it but next time I open it, it is not
maximized. Any suggestions?

Open such a window.
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.

I have done that quite some time ago but wanted to know a way to get them to
be always maximized instead of just as big as I can stretch them. Is that
possible? The window always opens as maximized when I click on IE on my
start menu but not on a favorite.

I forgot to tell you I am using IE6 on XP Home.
