when i maximize a IE window, or when it opens from the
shortcut (opt to open max) it seems like it drops down a
bit, such that the top or the status bar is just below the
edge of teh toolbar, or the screen bottom if i move the
toolbar down.. tried it with toolbar locked and unlocked.
not sure whats doing this.. any helpfull ideas?
 
Hi,
Try:
With only the affected window open (and the taskbar NOT set to autohide)
grab the top of the taskbar and pull it up to twice its normal height. Then
close the window, resize the taskbar, reopen the window.
Or
With only that window open, right click the taskbar and choose "tile
vertically" (horizontally should also work.)
Or (a registry edit)
