Default How to Maximize on First Use

I know this has been asked before, but I can't find the simple answer. When
IE is first started, how do u make your home page (I use FoxNews) come up
maximized instead of having to maximize it every time?

Default How to Maximize on First Use

Whichever shortcut you are using to launch the window, right click it and
select properties. Under the 'Run' drop-down, choose "Maximized".

If the window still opens small, try this next:

First, *close all other windows*. Now, grab the corners of the window and
drag it to full screen size. Close the window using FileClose, or FileExit
depending what program you're in. Windows will remember the last screen size
used the next time you open the program.

For Internet Explorer questions not pertaining to Outlook Express, please
post to one of the following:

I use this handy little utility. Works every time. Non-intrusive and
best of all it's free!
