Whenever I click on a link, I always have to maximize it. How do I make it appear maximized to begin with?

IE 6.0
XP

Open a single Internet Explorer window to the smaller size.
Drag the corners of the window until it completely fills the screen. Do not use the maximize button to enlarge the window.
Hold down the Ctrl key, keep it depressed, and using the mouse click File and then Exit/Close on the menu bar. Do not use the "X" in the upper right corner to close the window.
Internet Explorer should now open in a full window.
If it still opens to a smaller size repeat the above instructions, substituting the "Shift" key for the "Ctrl" key.


Try that and see what happens.

There are also downloads that are supposed to do this, but I'm not sure how trustworthy they are.

No problem. I, like you, don't like it when the windows don't always maximize.
