Hello, is there any way I change the settings in IE7, whenever it opens a
new window, it is not maximized to the full screen size. I would ideally
prefer all new windows to open as tabs in my current browser, and not as new
pop up windows. Any help greatly appreciated!

Drag the window to the full size - don't use the "maximise" button.....

Tools-Internet Options and on the General tab click on the "Settings"
button under tabbed browsing and change settings there. You DID look
there first, before posting?

BTW, newsgroup for IE - microsoft.public.internetexplorer.general

This is a nice little free progarm that will maximise all windows when
opened.

I find a lot of times just stretching the window doesn't always hold the
settings. This program works great for me.

Thanks, Dan. I've emailed that link to a few people.
