    Ok, I don't know why but all of a sudden now whenever I click on a link that opens a new window the windo opens up shrunk, as in it is about 2 inches wide and I need to maximize, or stretch to read. Now I have tried a number of things to stop this but to no avail. Suggestions??

    Hi Unicorn401,
    Lets see if this works for you:
    (1) Open window
    (2) Drag the corners to the outside (all 4)
    (3) Now hold down the ctrl key while you use the mouse to click
    on file, then click on exit.
    (4) Now try re-opening window again and hopefully it will open up normally.
    Note: If by chance it does not, repeat the steps and in step 3 where you are
    asked to hold the ctrl key down, instead try holding the shift key down.

    Keep us posted...

    Thanks green, actually I found the fix, or a fix,by myself. I found if I left clicked on the top and clicked size while I had resized it large then closed it, fixed! Viola! thanks for answering though
