minimise problems in IE 5

when I have surfed the net for a few days/weeks I notice that when I minimise my window or click on a link that opens a new window the window shrinks to a tiny window 1 pixel by 1 pixel high in the very top left of my screen. I have to then right click on the toolbar and pick maximise it.

I am sure it is a registry problem beacause if I restore my registry to a few days before the problem started, it goes away, sounds like some script is kicking in on the sites a altering a value

any info on a cure would be a godsend (its driving me NUTS)

thanks

 

What version of IE5?

What OS version?

How often do you dump temp internet files, history, etc.?
