Windows 7 and IE8 problem

I bought a new Windows 7 computer from HP. Windows 7 comes with IE8.

Turns out that most people have a problem problem with IE8: Whenever you
open a new website from a shortcut, the new window opens in the "normal
size" (partial screen), instead of in the "maximized" size which fills the
whole screen. (I am not talking about a "full" screen.)

This is a real nuisance because it means you have to click on the "maximize"
field in the upper right hand corner of the screen. Judging by the number of
posts on this subject, this is a common problem. The bigger problem is that
nobody has a solution. (Re-sizing the screen and closing it, does not work.)
HP has not solution, either.

Has anyone come across a solution to this pain? Anyone in this group who is
afflicted with the same problem?

Thanks

Walter

Use Firefox instead of Internet Exploder. Or Chrome. Or Opera. IE is the
gateway for malware to your computer and using it is foolish and naive.

What a crock of ****. IE is just fine. If you have antivirus software and
don't visit the disgusting sites that Alias likes to visit, then you should
be fine.

How would a linturd liar like you know about IE as you don't use it. You
don't even use W7.
TROLL!

And the sites you think I visit are? IE is famous for being a sieve.
Everyone knows that.

Then why did it do this to me too from the first day I got my new Acer

IE is the most insecure browser out there. This is a irrevocable fact. I
hope you use it.

Used this for years before I switched to Chrome. Haven't tried it with
Windows 7. Freewa

Turns into crap chat if you dudes continue your childish behaviour.

So lets give Mr Walter E a solution:

- Close all IE windows.
- Rightclick on the IE icon and select Properties.
- On the Shortcut tab you see Run: (about halfway)
- Set this to Maximized.
- Click "Apply" and close.


Have fun...:-)
