whenever I right click and use open in new window the new window isn't totally maximized and it kinda ticks me off :cry: . What can I do to make it so it's always maximized?
 
Pulled from a Google search:

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 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)

*you may have to drag the sides first*
 
yea thats the problem. It says don't click maximize so it will only get really big but not quite maximized, and it ****es me off. I can't figure out how to have it maximized when I right click open new window.... :mad:

I'm starting to hate IE. Think I should try firefox or opera.

i think i'm one of the few that prefers mozilla to firefox. i hated opera. give it a shot, this among several other reasons why mozilla/firefox are so many times better than IE.
 
I use Firefox and thunderbird for myself. When I build a computere for a friend, I will usually install Mozilla. I find that mozilla tends to be a little more stable. But, the quirks in firefox and thunderbird do not bother me. Plus, the fix usually can be found relatively quickly in their forums.
