I have the latest version of Internet Explorer, and whenever there's a popup, the window only takes up 3/4 of the screen, and I always have to press the maximize button in the top right corner. This has become a nuisance and a waste of time since it never used to happen before (I've had this computer for 4 years now). How do I fix this problem? Thanks for your help.

When the window pops up do not maximize it with the maximize button. Instead with your mouse drag the screen until it is full size. Then close the window. The next time it opens it will be full screen.

You might want to try downloading Internet Explorer 7 again.  Uninstall your current version, and install the newly downloaded one.  Or before you decide to do that, consider getting firefox instead.  Go to http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/ and download and install the latest version.\n\nAdditional help for this issue may be reached by contacting kevinarbogast@yahoo.com\n\nIf I am unable to help you, please visit http://www.cybertechhelp.com/\nsurely they can help you out!

Try hitting the CTRL key and W at the same time. In Internet Explorer this will close an open browser window. It may be a adware program has popped open a new window and this command will close it. \n\nAlso, do yourself a favor and get a pop-up blocker from Yahoo or Google to help this.

If working in Internet Explorer, go to View, Text Size, Largest.\n\nYou can also change your desktop appearance for all programs.  On your desktop screen, right click, the go to properties, settings, change screen resolution to the least amount (far left)

What browser are you running? I have noticed that this happen to me too when I'm running Explorer especially. For several reasons, I quit using IE and switched to Firefox, with the Yahoo toolbar. Now the popups are GONE, I mean maybe I get a popup once a week, and I'm on the web alot.\nGood luck

Try minimizing the window and then maximize it.\n\nOn the bottom right corner of your browser, theres a magnifying glass icon. Make sure its 100%.\n\nGo to View then text size, and make sure its medium.\n\nGo to Tools then Internet Options, then go to ADVANCED and click on Reset Internet Explorer options.\n\nRestart your browser.

I've seen it told on here that you need to close all your windows in IE while maximized and that will train the computer to open them maximixed.\n\nSo far, it's working for me.\n\nIF that is what you are talking about. The information you give isn't really all that concise. It's sort of confusing.

stop using IE. use mozilla firefox instead. it even has its own pop-up blocker.

Click on Tools, then Internet Options.  On the General Tab, look toward the bottom under Tabs and click the Settings button.  You can change how IE opens new windows here, under "when a pop up is encountered."

On Internet Explorer 7 click the gold star on the left of the toolbar, or press Ctrl + i or Alt + c on your keyboard, and also if the Menu Bar with File, Edit, View, Favorites, Tools, and Help isn't showing, click Tools (an icon that looks like a gear) on the bottom right of the toolbar, a menu pops up, click Menu Bar, or right click a vacant space on the toolbar, a menu pops up, click Menu Bar. \n\nIf you only need the Menu Bar with File, Edit, View, Favorites, Tools, and Help to appear temporarily just press the Alt key on your keyboard. This way your toolbar doesn't take up as much of your screen. If you want it to stay permanently, right click on a vacant space on the toolbar and click Menu Bar.

Welll, we've got IE7 with no problems.  But what we noted is:  First, the Menu Bar (File, Edit, View, etc) does not automatically turn on by default, as it did in prior IE.  You have to turn it on yourself by clicking on Tools, then check Menu Bar; now it will come on automatically.  Second, the Favorites work slightly differently (click on yellow star) and once you get the hang of it, very easy to use.  Third, there is a Print button that is very easy to use.  Fourth, once you get used to the tabs and how to use them, they are a great and very fast feature.  Fifth, you can designate Yahoo as your home page and it comes right up, so I'm not sure how there is interference.  \n\nIf your computer meets all the IE7 requirements, I'd try to download again, from Microsoft Update site.  All of your current IE settings and favorites will automatically be transferred.

When you say yahoo-internet explorer, do you mean IE with a yahoo toolbar?  I believe that the yahoo toolbar blocks popups, so that could be your with the popups when you simply have IE.  Piece of advice, download another browser - Opera or Firefox - they're faster, and don't have IE's consistent problem with popups.\n\nOh yeah, and IE won't be in the add/remove programs, because it is built into windows and can't be deleted.  You can, however, delete the yahoo toolbar, if you so desire.
