IE 5.0 help - new windows are opened minimized

[pannam1]

Hey guys help me out...

I am running IE broswer 5.5 on win 98 SE ...
Every time I right clik on a link and open to a new window, the new window is opened minimized... I then have to maximize the new window before seeing it... this is very annoying... anyone know how to fix this?

Hey thanks a lot man...

In the previous thread, the reply by jkdude is right on!

It worked well for me...

The key is when u right click a window and get an inappropriate size, you should resize the window yourself (by dragging the corners) and NOT click on the maximize buttons...

From then on, all new windows open the same size as the window you resized...

Wow, thanks guys... you dont know how incredibly annoying that "feature" was...
