You know .. i hate internet explorer. the damn thing - everytime i click open link in a new window, it never maximizes all the way. i have to manually click the damn maximize button. and sometimes because of that, i close the window behind that and grrrrr......
damn xp. damn ie.
Just rant rant rant about how IE sucks. |

| That's why I don't use it unless Netscape screws up. |

Ya, it's horrible when i search for ref photos i open about 50 new windows, and then i go clicking on each tab "right click + Maximize, right click + mMaximize, etc." 50 times!
Get this, there is shortcut to Close window Alt+F4 but none for Maximize/Minimize!! HOW DUMB |

| There is a way that lets keep the new windows permanantly maximized: Click the "Restore" button and let it shrink down to size, then you use your mouse to drag each sides and change the size of the window to your liking, then click "close" without maximizing. Next time you launch IE, it'll be in the same size you left with last time, and everytime you opens up a new window, it stays as almost-maximized-but-not-quite. Hopefully I didn't misread your problems.. |

there is a button for minimize all (windows-m)
you gotta be careful which window you close last if you want to keep it big... |

I just use Mozilla, its basically a cross between Infernal Explorer and Netscrape.
..Just if you want an alternitive thats not as easy to make fun of. And yes there is a version for windows |

| I'm hating it right now too! When I try to select one of my favorites, the link loads not on the active browser from which I called the bookmark, but another browser in the background. Frequently, that browser has something on it that I'm working on, so this pisses me off! Now I wish I could use Netscape, but unfortunately, the web is too rude to make their site cross-browser friendly. And Opera just keeps crashing on me. |
