Explorer pop-up windows very small
2 Answers
When I click a link, or a site has a pop-up, Internet Explorer 6 running on XP is now opening up in a tiny window, about a quarter of the size of the screen. It wasn't doing this before, so does anyone know how to change the automatic size of new windows?

When you click a link and get a small window, do NOT maximise it by clicking the square in the the top right-hand corner. Instead, make the window fill the screen by using 'drag-&-click' on the edges of the window. For some strange reason, IE6 always opens windows using the size (& location on the screen) which the last window was dragged to but ignores windows which were resized using the 'maximise' square.
From then on, all windows should open full-size.
