Running W2K, IE 6.0.2800.11061c - latest MS security patches.

Problem: my ie screens have all dropped down the screenthe distance of the window label - thus I can't reach the scroll bar at the bottom to move the screen right or left. Tis a general pain.

It is not happening on anything else - Outlook Ex is fine, Word, etc. all ok so it's not the display.

It seems to have started after my home page site (kcbx.com) had an ad that installed a tool bar at the top of the screen - I bitched to them and they took it out but the screen has shrunk and changing home page doesn't do anything

Any help appreciated

thanx

Can you Maximise the Window so that the IE Window fills the Computer Screen???

by bobp3

I can maximize IE window (F11) but the status bar at the bottom of the screen barely appears - about 1/3 of it.

1. Generally if you resize the window how you want it, and then hold down the shift key when you close IE, it will open up at that new size whenever IE is opened.

2. Also if you press F11, that will display the window in full screen mode. That should allow you to use the scroll bars. Hope one of these helped.
