Hey folks does anyone know how to set up my PC so that when ever I open a
folder or web site the page opens up fully, rather than only filling about a
1/2 of the page?, I've tried F11, and I've tried maximising the page,
and I've tried manually dragging the page out to resize it, but as soon as
I go back to the page or open another one it goes back to only opening about
1/2 sized.

Open to your home page. Then resize using the cursor at the corners.
Position exactly where you want it. Then close IE. When you reopen it
will be in the same place. DO NOT use the resizing buttons at the top
R hand corner of the screen

This is a bug in Windows. It has been there for years, ever since Windows
95.

Open IE and then resize it using the cursor and NOT the resize boxes
in the upper right hand corner. Make sure it's right where you want it
then shut down WITH IE OPEN. Restart...IE will now open as you left
it.
