I am now using IE7. When I open a link in a site, it often – but not every link does this -- opens in a small, or what some call normal, window. In IE6, as I remember, all links would open in a maximized window, which is what I want. I can’t find anything in Tools:Options or elsewhere to change this. Does anyone have an answer? Thanks.

The initial IE window's "restore down" setting will control the size of subsequent windows not opened as tabs.

Thanks both jam and networkkid83. Where is the restore down setting? And what do you mean by the actual window?

Thanks again.
