IE 6 window sizing headaches!

Im running IE6, and I have this nagging problem where secondary windows open up really small and I have to maximize them each time a new window opens up. Now, if I use the IE shortcut on the desktop or the IE shortcut in the quick launch bar the window opens up full size, however anytime I use *right click, open in new window* option the window that actually opens is like 1/50th the normal size. I have tried top open a second window, resize it, and close it out several different ways thinking this will *save* the setting, but all have failed. Any input would be great.

Thanks,

Um, if I recall correctly, when the second window opens, maximize it and then close it while holding down the left shift key, then close the main window while holding the left shift key. Now your windows should recall their sizes.

I got this from pcworld many issues ago so if it doesn't work, go there and do a search for it.
 
I haven't tried the shift+close thing, but I know that if you open a new browser window and then reposition it and expand it to where it is as large as it can get without being maximized, you can close it and then new windows after that will be the same size. It's not the same as opening every window maximized, but pretty close.
