Try resizing the window to the size you want and then control-click the close box. That might do it for you.

Yeah, a lot of times when web-sites resize the window, it tends to stick. I don't use IE much but I know in Firebird theres a setting where you can disable the javascript-based resize. I don't know if IE has it but it might be worth looking into.

Really? I'm suprised. It's the best one out there as far as I am concerned. I use it on windows, linux and Mac. Pop-up blocking, tabbed browsing and the ability to block ads with a right click are some of the hi-lights.

Here's a link http://www.mozilla.org/products/firebird/
