Found these tips also....supposedly work for both IE and explorer... Drag the sides of the browser window to the edges of the screen then go the File menu, select Close and press F5. Click the link again and the new window should open fully. OR Maximise the window using your mouse, then hold down the Ctrl button and select the Close Window "X". OR Hold down Ctrl + Shift + Alt while using the mouse to drag the sides of the window to fill the screen, click the close window icon while still pressing the buttons.

They are not minimized, but they are not fully maximized either. Has anyone encountered this? How can I force all applications to open in a maximized state?
