How do I get my screen to display as a maximized window when I click on links and such? I've already gone to, IE Properties>Shortcut tab>Run:Maximized. What else is there??

IE sometimes opens and it is not maximized, because it depends how you closed the windows. In IE maximise the windows and go to File>Exit, now IE will open in max. untill you resize your window.
I dun use IE so I'm not sure if this works 100%,

i reda somewhere to hold control while u click the X in ie when ur closing a window and it will save how u had the window (ie. maximize it wfirst and it will save maximized).

It doesn't seem to affect when you do "open in new window"

Thanks but no thanks

Did that a long time ago but my links still open in a small window. When I click the IE icon, my start page is maximized. It's every link that I click on while 'surfing' that's small.
