Does anyone know why IE doens't maximise fully??

It seems like the bottom part of the IE browser has just been cut off and everytime i maximise it, there will be the top part of it missing, revealing the desktop.

I find this increasingly annoying, and I can't find out what I did to cause this.
Firstly I cant see my status bar because that part's practically sliced off, even if I prompted for it to work.

This si weird, becoz it only happens on IE, eveything else maximizes properly.
Does anyone know how I can fix my IE browser to maximise properly again?

I've had this happen to me once, however I do not know how to fix it. I would like to find this out for myself too. Luckily it just fixed itsself back to normal!

it's got nothing to do with f11...

the normal maximise mode just wouldn't maximise.

and, yes, it has automatically fixed itself already...

man i just did a fresh install of windows after a full reformat and I encouner gay problems like this.

i hate to say this, but installing norton antivirus 2004 is the worst thing i ever did, lag my comp and what a resource hogger.

internet security is such a hassle. :angry:

Almost all Norton home products lag your system that's why I stopped using it since the 2002 version. ;) If I were you, I'd use AVG AV or Norton Corperate Edition.

i can't remember but it's as though the entire IE broswer was shifted down to the bottom of the screen in maximised mode.

Newayz I did another reformat and the browser is doing good.

i'm looking into getting opera and AVG anti-virus anytime soon, after I resolve the problem of my missing gpedit.msc. :angry:
