I am currently using a HP Pavilion PC with IE6. Whenever I open the browser the window is not maximized. I maximize it and then close from the file menu. When I reopen it again needs to be maximized. I know that I am overlooking something obvious.... HELP

Are you using a shortcut to open the browser?

Right-click on the shortcut and then click on Properties --> make sure the Run box shows "Maximized" and click on OK.

If you right-click on IE and do the same from the Start Menu, it should also work.

I had a similar situation that drove me crazy. But it only happened when I was in IE and I right clicked a link and chose to "Open in New Window". After weeks of putting up with it and trying to figure out how to change it, I finally just stretched the new window to fill the screen. It's been working fine ever since.

While this is a 'work around', there has to be something that is keeping this Window from opening up maximized. My home page come up fine just not subsequent windows
