Window Maximization is "Broke"?

[Tommy]

Strange problem started happening all of a sudden, but
only with IE6. When I hit the window maximize button,
the window, instead of the window opening and occupying
the entire desktop, it gets maximized, but positioned
half way down the desktop (the wallpaper on the upper
part of the desktop is exposed). At this point, I can't
drag it, stretch it, etc. (i.e., it "behaves" like a
maximized window). I can only resize and move it when I
now poke the restore down button. Anybody know what's
going on here?

Thanks in advance, Tommy

Great thought, couldn't have said it better myself. <w>
