Do you actually have a problem WITH the screan display? If so can you describe it in detail so we can help you to fix it ?

(PS...I notice you are apparently running win 98se with only 96 MB of Ram ?)

Size the window the way you want it (full screen).
Hold down the CTRL key as you click the X to exit
In theory (everything works in theory) that should force the window to come back the way you left it
In the beginning there was the command line.

with ie7 if you run it like this

iexplore -k


it starts in Kiosk mode (fullscreen)

I'm sure there's a way to start all of the ie's this way.

Why would you want the kind of full screen you get with F11? Doesn't that eliminate the address bar and buttons and taskbar and the minimized windows?

What you probably want is a maximized screen. I guess that Internet Explorer is opening as a box in the middle of the screen.

There are 3 ways to get that if it opens as a small screem in the middle, each one successly less well known but easier to do than the others.

The best known is clicking the maximize box - the middle choice of the top three on the top rioght corner of the window.

This box is sometimes covered up.

the next best is double-clicking on the name on the top left corner of teh page.

best is pressing Alt+Spacebar+X, which can be dionwe with one hand.

How to change the default I do not know. But pressing the Windows key (that's the one with the Microsoft flag on it between the Ctrl and the Alt key on the left - and there's another on the right side of the keyboard)

Pressing the Windows key and the Pause/Break key at the same time will get you the Properties box.
