Hi. IE7, when the window is large, the icon in the top right corner shows that it's small (2 little squares) top right corner. Seems its reversed. Does anyone know how to get it back to it's original state...here's a screenshot:

Notice the icon top right corner is showing "small window" even though i'm seeing full screen. New windows open small, then when I click to enlarge, the icon changes to two little boxes again. Hope I've explained myself properly, and would appreciate the help..

Erm... Two little boxes mean click here to window this (make it a little box). One box means click here to full screen it. It's not a gauge to show you whether you're full screen or windowed. It's a button to change between the two, so naturally it would not be saying fullscreen when you are full screen.

In other words. Situation normal.

Thanks Woodlouse, one thing though..traditionally when I open "upload image" for instance, it'll open in a full sized window, now it opens as a tiny window requiring me to click the "little box" to get it full size. Definately something new..see example. Occasionally Explorer opens as a tiny window as well when I initiate it from desktop. That definately never happened before..

1. Open the Upload window
2. Maximise
3. Hold down CTRL and close the window.
4. Restart IE.

It should now always open new windows as fullscreen.
