a good share of the time when i click a link i'll get a smaller sized window
instead of a full size page. i try clicking the corners and drag but when i
reclick the link it goes back to a smaller window. Any ideas?

Some web articles are programmed that way. You can not change the behavior.
I see it also at times.

I don't use IE7, but in Firefox you can force new windows to open as
tabs. I would suspect IE7 should be able to do the same.

Hi Mick,

Thanks for replying but I don't use IE. The post PRIOR to Richard's was
saying that some sites pop up a small window and they were trying to
figure out how to eliminate it.

But because Richard top posts and uses a delimiter in his sig (which
should only be used when bottom posting), the PRIOR post was deleted in
its entirety, so you were unable to follow my train of thought.

But hopefully the OP will see your post! Thanks again,
