internet explorer its open only about 1/4 the size of the full
screen. i then have to manually full size it to read it. how do i

Re: new window

Make it big and hold SHIFT KEY as you click the little X to close it.

Re: new window

Right-click the IE shortcut and select properties. Then next to Run, there
should be a drop-down box that probably says Normal Window. Click the arrow
and select Maximized.
