	Controlling Window Size in Internet Explorer (By Neil J. Rubenking, PC Magazine)

Neil J. Rubenking's Answer:
Most problems with Internet Explorer window size can be shaken loose using a Registry tweak. Launch REGEDIT and navigate to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main. In the right-hand pane, locate and delete the value Window_Placement. Deleting this value is harmless, as it will be re-created when needed.

You can also set the size for secondary browser windows--the ones you get when you right-click a link and choose Open in new window. Just open a secondary window, size it as you please, and hold the Shift key down while clicking the window's Close button.
