For some time , now , when I am on a page and click to bring up another page , the new page does not open fully and everytime I have to enlarge it so it will fill the screen . This used to work properly , but for some reason no longer does so . What do I do to correct this , so new pages will automatically fill the screen ? Using Windows XP . Thanks muchly ! Don
Windows "remembers" the size and position that it occupied when closed. If you will open the linked page, that drag the window to the desired size and screen position, then close and reopen the Window, it will reopen in the desired size.

Also you might need to close all other windows of Internet Explorer that you have open.
When this happens to me (as it often does after those pesky pop ups come up) I will find a web page that has a link on it. Then I right click on that link and select "Open in New Window". Close the first browser window by clicking on the X in the upper right corner. Then re-size the other window as Dwight said. And you have to do like he suggests - you have to manually resize by dragging the corner of the window. You can't use the maximize button. But to tag something extra to his instructions, hold down the Ctrl key when you click on the X (close button). Then re-open and all should be well....unlessthe "remember last window size" has been corrupted in the Registry. If that's the case just let us know and there are ways to fix that as well
