Acer :: Handy Win7 IE8 Trick

I was having problems keeping the IE page fully maximised each time I opened a new page.

To correct this, I would expand the borders of the page to the size I wanted by clicking and dragging them. Then not exiting the page by clicking on the "X", but by going to main menu and selecting File then "Exit". This system had worked with XP IE and also with Vista IE but did not work for Win 7 IE.

This works: Right click on Desktop IE icon, select Properties.

In the window that opens, the "Target" is highlighted. Delete that and insert "C:Program FilesInternet Exploreriexplore.exe". Insert the quotes as well.
