Milk-Inc,
good question! When I click 'maximize' from the globe memu on IE title bar, I get a 'full' screen on my display.
Soo, I tried both of the suggested methods in the link provided, closed out IE, relaunch the shortcut, and still get a much smaller IE than full screen. I even created a new desktop shortcut from the maximized full screen and the shortcut still launches IE as a much smaller size than full screen.
My IE home page does launch as a 'full' screen-my problem seems to be with shortcuts???
