G'Day All,
Everytime I open IE6 or Outlook Express 6 they open with a small screen, how does one resize so that we go into a maximised screen?
Thanking you in advance.

The theory is, you open ie6 - resize it to maximum or what ever you wish then close it. Make sure no other instances of ie6 are running. Then the next time you open it - it should remember how you left it.
Having said that, some of these popup ads resize your windows for you grrrr! In which case, tools, options advanced tab, reset defaults... or run a repair etc.
What windows version? You may be able to roll back to the previous version reboot and then upgrade to ie6 again if all else fails.
Try running a virus scan as well. I ran into a similar problem when helping out a friend only to discover that he had a virus and hadn't updated his virus check for a long time.
Don't know if this will help any but good luck.:)
NooNoo/Dark Millennium,
Thank you for the timely response. Wishing you both well.

I've also done the control+close, (hold the ctrl key as you click the x to close the program) which is supposed to force Windows to remember that view setting/window size.Quote:

One thing I've done on my machine is to alter the properties of the quick launch shortcuts (right click and select properties or go to C:\WINDOWS\Application Data\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Quick Launch) by the start button to "run maximized", and I use them instead of the desktop ones.
On IE6 you may have to unlock the toolbar first to be able to change the settings.
good luck~
Thats what pop-up stopper is for...Quote:

**SQUISH** Another one gone!
No more re-sizing on their own.
