Hi,
Hope someone out there can help me. All of a sudden any
time I click on a link it pops up in a new window that is
mimimized where you can only see the top bar of the new
window. I have tried to play around with option settings
but can't find anything that relates to this issue.
Thanks,
Sara

Hi Sara,

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.

Enjoy :-)
