optional187 Posted April 28, 2004 Share Posted April 28, 2004 for some reason when i open a new window by right clicking a link and hitting "open in new window" the window opens up REALLY small...so i have to double click the bar at the top or hit the square "fullsize" button to make it big. does anybody know how to change this? its really annoying.

BuddySol Posted April 28, 2004 Share Posted April 28, 2004 hmmm... ...you try re-sizing the box manually...then closing the window? sometimes when i'm' browsing the net and a new window pops up, it pops up to the size of the last window closed.

optional187 Posted April 28, 2004 Author Share Posted April 28, 2004 yeah, i've tried re-sizing it manually..then closing and re-opening it. but that doesn't work. i know what you mean with the pop up's poping up as the same size as the last windown closed...but thats not even working for me. EDIT: nevermind...i just got it. you have to open a new window, resize it manually, close the original windown, then all the new windows will open the size that you manually adjusted the second window to. if that makes sense. thanks for your help Frankie!

Mercutio Posted April 28, 2004 Share Posted April 28, 2004 I think it's mainly from pop-ups you don't notice until you close the main broswer like optional was sayin' about closing and the size settings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
optional187 Posted April 28, 2004 Author Share Posted April 28, 2004 what did you do the first time that it didn't work? lol ??? i opened a new window, re-sized it, then closed it. i kept the main browser open which is what kept the settings the same. small windows sucks.

sup Posted April 28, 2004 Share Posted April 28, 2004 Am I the only one who gets crap loads of popups? Today when I turned on my computer and clicked on Internet Explorer, it took me to yahoo like normal, and out of NOWHERE came 8 popups! This happens almost every day now. I hate the internet!! >_< Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mercutio Posted April 28, 2004 Share Posted April 28, 2004 Go download Opera or Mozilla of some sort. Those are just a few. They have an option when you hit F12 that lets you "refuse Pop-ups" or accept them again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trepid Posted April 28, 2004 Share Posted April 28, 2004 close all browser windows, open a new window and resize it to the size you want, hit ctrl + N to open a new window, close the original then the new window. it should now be how you like Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
