MS IE7 - fixed size of window

[Denis Scadeng]

Off topic, I know but I can't find a NG for IE7.

Using XP Home and recently downloaded IE7. I recently logged onto a
website of interest to me. There were a number of links - some to other
pages, some to other sources, including newspaper articles.
With some (but not all) a new window comes up but with the maximise
button greyed out - result a fixed size window with no means of
scrolling or enlarging. If I right click and add to favourites, I can
close it down and open it from the favourites folder. The URL is the
same.

I tried with another computer with W98 and an older IE and do not get
the same problem. I assume it is something to do with my computer and
setup. Any ideas as to what I may do about it?

Sorry about being OT.
