794628	2009-07-23 22:49:00	Just tryed that on the XP system & it didn't work. I use IE8.	Driftwood (5551)
794629	2009-07-23 23:10:00	mmmmmm works fine on my vista and xp machines. Did you close all the IE windows?	ronyville (10611)
794630	2009-07-23 23:30:00	Only had the one open. Just moved onto the vista system. When I open this site for example, I have the window at full height but like a gap down the LH side where I have a row of icons that can be accessed. If I move it to that position, close it, then reopen it, it's moved. I do quite often resize the windows if I am working on several at the same time but it would be handy if they would default to a set opening position.	Driftwood (5551)
794631	2009-07-24 05:12:00	I have established with Vista, if I hold down ctrl when I close the browser, it will open the same next time. Doesent seem to work with XP though.	Driftwood (5551)
794632	2009-07-25 05:35:00	Any more ideas?	Driftwood (5551)
794633	2009-07-25 09:34:00	Can't add anything to the above but one thing I do like about Linux and KDE is that you can make any Window or dialog box open to whatever size and position you want. It really annoys me those dialog boxes that are too small and you have no way of viewing all the data.	mikebartnz (21)
