With this and other forums when I visit the page from the link in a notification email, the page is more down-restored and I always have to maximize the pages, is there a way for me to have these pages already maximized upon visiting?

Put your cursor to the corner of the box and drag it out to the size you want. The next time it should come up the same size.

Dragged out both sides, top and bottom closed page and revisited, did this 3 times, doesn't work.

Mike, for the hell of it, try this:

After enlarging the page, hold down the Shift or Cntl key at the same time as you click the X in upper righthand corner to close the page.

This worked for me on occasion when nothing else seemed to. Could be coincidence, but may be worth a try.

Not this time Lina!:D Nice try though, you seem to be great with this kinda stuff huh? Tried both Shift and Ctrl just like you said, doesn't work on my end unfortunately.

This is... IE Maximizer
It's FREE but he also accepts donations.
I've been using it for over a year with no problems.

This program will automatically maximize new Internet
Explorer and Outlook Express windows for you. It also
includes a function for hiding/closing all IE windows
with a userdefined hotkey.

You can also open new IE windows and automatically
have them sent to the background. The program is also
capable of closing popup windows

Will this work with Yahoo browser Pete? I don't think it does but just checking?

I just assumed you were talking about IE.
IE Maximizer only works with IE.

You'd do best by switching to FireFox or the Mozilla Browser and
enter the world of TABBED browsing.

I prefer Mozilla; Install by choosing the CUSTOM install
and then select Browser Only.

Yeah Pete, I realize now that this is a "browser" issue, will have to give this some thought as I will have to change my email name if I should switch to Mozilla, thanks. By the way, the IE Maximizer does work great with IE, main reason why I am using Yahoo browser is because of the multiple windows options it gives me, come to think of it, I will see if it will be just as good for me to simply have multiple windows open in IE.

Mike,
Email is irrelevant to using Firefox from Mozilla. You can still use Yahoo as your home page or use the Tools menu to open your default email program (Outlook or OE, etc.). And tabbed browsing from Firefox blows the doors off multiple IE windows.
