Internet Explorer browser is too small

I can open a new IE browser just fine when I double click the icon. I like how the screen is maximized. But when I try to open a new browser from clicking a link or right-clicking and then selecting open a new window, the new window is not maximized.

How can I make it so that the new window is maximized?

All I can do is manually stretch out the browser to the max, but I want it maxed out.

Max the IE and then close it.

That may do the trick.

If not then have only the IE open and then use the task bar to Cascade Windows.

Close the broswer and see what happens

I am sure that he knows about FF.

However, he stated that he is using IE

WWATS?

What's with all these synonyms? I didn't know Firefox was referred to as FF.

I used firefox before and got a virus. Never again.

This works only if I open a brand new window with the IE icon. But if I try to open a new window from a link, then it reverts to the cascaded view.

If you're using IE7 then you can click on the links with the scroll wheel button and it opens that new page up in a new tab.
