All of a sudden my IE windows seem to want to all start up in the bottom right corner so that I have to manually drag the window up into the middle of the screen. New windows (i.e. when clicking on a hyperlink) often come up as just the top menu bar so I have to manually maximise it to read it.

Just thought a reboot would fix it but no its been going on over a week now.

Any suggestions before I punch my monitor?

Thanks,
Simon.

open a window, resize it to the way you want all your windows to open. Open a linked window. Resize it. Close the first window. Close the second window. Open a new window and it should be the same shape as the second window.

(This works for W2k - not sure about XP, but worth a try)
