Tabbed windows too small?

Okay I had a crash and reinstalled everything on my puter. Now when I click on the emails to respond etc the new window opens smaller. I want them to open full sized. How do I do this in IE7? But if I right click on respond to this discussion and open in new tab it is fine. So how can I get them to automatically open full screen sized not half the size of normal windows opened? Thanks. HAPPY POSTINGS FROM GRANDPA BOB !!~

Window has a way of remembering it last size state. You could either drag its corner to set the size you prefer or maximize it then close it. It must the last window of IE to memorize its state size. Hope this helps.

It must be the last open IE7 window to have its effect.

I am sorry that I can't answer your question on how to fix this problem, but I can suggest switching to Mozilla firefox. My husband and I both use firefox, and we don't have any problems with it at all!!

That happens to me on occassion but I never bothered to figure out how to fix it being eventually it fixes itself out somehow. I just hit the lil box on top next to the 'X' to maximize it is all.

I am not sure as I don't use Internet Explorer, I recommend changing to Mozilla Firefox as I find it is a much better browser and I have never had a problem with windows not opening full size.

On firefox it's under "tools" - then options - then tabs - and the options are in there, wonder if you aren't/weren't opening tabs as a window? instead of "opening new tabs as a tab" - Hopefully you got it figured out by now.. and didn't have to search around for a long time on how to do it! I'm thinking a number of kind Internet Explorer mylotters pointed the way..

this is because there are as many bugs in ie. it is the worst of all browsers. i think that it can crash on anything...

Hm, it sounds like you're having lots of problems with Internet Explore 7.0. How about downloading Firefox or Opera browser? Here are the websites: Opera: http://www.opera.com/ Firefox: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/ Which email do you use? I think it would be good to know because I have no clue why it opens your email in a new window. Pablo

I haven't came across that before AGB and I use Mozilla myself but is there not a file section where you could go in and resize the tabs? Hope someone can help more than I and you have the problem sorted already! xxx
