New IE6 Window Does Not Open in Maximized View

[Ron]

Hello,

I searched the MS support site but could not find an
answer to this question:

When I open up new IE6 windows, they do not open in the
fully maximized view. They will open in smaller views
that I may have set previously. Is there a way to stop
this by clearing the registry, IE6 setting, etc?

Thanks,

Ron

Ron,
Stretch that second window out to the desired size- don't use maximize.
Close other IE windows. Close that window last. You may have to redo this
periodically.

Ron,
Reset Browser Window Size:

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.
