Hi
When I click on a link which opens a page in a new
window, the new window is only 1/4 of the screen. This
happened after I had "tiled" my windows, before it was
working to full screen. Any ideas what to do?
Thanks in anticipation

Try the following and see if it helps.

Also - Courtesy of Robert Aldwinckle:

Do *not* to maximize the window when you want to preserve a window's normal
properties. From your description is sounds as if you may be getting
temporary persistence of a window's maximized properties. In that case a
window's normal properties would be unchanged. In order to save a window's
normal properties you have to close the window in normal mode; further, if
there are any other windows open in normal mode still open their properties
will be preserved when they close. So if you aren't making sure that
iexplore.exe is no longer an active process (e.g. using Task Manager) after
you close your modified window that could also explain your symptom even if
you are making your modifications
on a normal mode window.

Another possibility is that your user profile is not yours to change or
something equivalent is inhibiting updates. In that case check with your
Administrator (e.g. ask if a "mandatory profile" is in effect) or see if a
replacement user profile can be created.

See item 4, Testing User Profiles, in the following article for related
information.

Hope this helps.
