I just upgraded to internet explorer 7. After doing so when I went to bring
up the website for the kids (Webkinz.com) it no longer opens up in the full
screen so part of the bottom of the page is missing and even when I maximize
it, it still doesn't show the bottom part of the page. I have to manually
change the zoom so that the full page shows. The kids used to be able to go
on the website themselves and I didn't have to worry about it because it took
up the whole screen and there was nothing for them to click on (icons or
minimizing, or any kind of tool bar). Now I have to get them set up and
have to worry about them getting into another website or clicking on
something that might cause problems. I don't know a lot about computers. Is
there someway that I can get that to come up like it did before I upgraded
from IE 6?
Thanks

When I right click and do properties a "run" dropbox doesn't come up. This
is what I don't understand. All it shows me is the url and doesn't have a
tab for shortcut to show me "run".
Thanks for trying to help. Any other suggestions?
