[gui-talk] IE 8 problem

[Joel Deutsch]

this probably hasn't anything to do with Vista, per se. If I simply launch 
Internet Explorer from its icon on my desktop instead of using the hotkey 
I've devised for doing that, it opens as a smallish window on the desktop, 
too, witch of course I immediately maximize by pressing alt spacebar x, but 
the same doesn't happen if I launch IE using my shortcut keystroke. I don't 
know how to change the parameters for how a shortcut launches something like 
that. I only know how to configure a shortcut command associated with such 
an icon, including specifying that it open full size.

I ought to be more clear about saying that I don't think it has to do with 
any specific Web page, either, although that's what you're thinking of when 
you do this. It's launching another instance of your browser, whichever that 
is, and it's treating this like opening any program for which it's 
instructed not to open in a full size window.
opening
Good luck.

Since installing IE 8 on my Vista notebook when I open a web site from a 
shortcut on my desktop the page opens minimized.  Before IE 8 no such 
problem.  Is anyone else experiencing this problem or have a solution?
