Every time I click a link which opens a new window the new window isn't maximized, it's all squished up in the corner and it's starting to piss me off.

I know I used to have it so it's maximized right away but I don't know how I did that, anyone who can help me out?

Are you using a PC? Try taking a window out of maximized mode and resizing it how you like. I think that should make all other windows you open that size too?

Yeah that doesn't work. :S I thought it did too but apparently not. :(

IE on XP.

Also, like I said, clicking a link which opens a new window makes it stupidly small. I'm still no closer to fixing this. -.-

On your desktop or whatever, goto the IE properties.



Then under the Shortcut tab, goto run, and select maximized.

Doesn't work.

I get a different properties screen because my IE link is not a shortcut.



I tried making a shortcut to my IE link, then changing it like you showed, but it still doesn't work. :(
