    Hi, lately when I open a new link in IE, they open in a narrow bar and I have to enlarge them every time , they used to just open a full new page ?.
    I have a new monitor but that should not make any diff. ????
    any tips , Thanks Des,

    A straightforward solution is IEMaximiser

    You might try the usual trick of persuading IE to open full page ....

    Open the link and duplicate it Ctrl+N

    Resize the duplicate window by dragging on the corners & sides

    Close down the original link window and then close down the resized window using File > Exit while holding down the Shift key.

    Works for the first window IE opens and for all subsequent windows, but not come across link widows behaving strangely. Worth a try :)
