When I open IE I get the full size page but it doesn't 'completely' cover my screen, there's gap of about 4mm on the right. I can click and drag the page around but it still doesn't fit properly.

Also when I used to hover my cursor over a link, an address would show up in a box at the bottom of my screen, this has box gone :confused:

Both these changes have occured in the last few weeks.....HELP me please you lovely techie people x x x
Just run, run and keep on running!

    If you go to 'view' and tick 'status bar' then this should come back?

    Jay jay - is your IE window maximised? Try clicking on the middle of the 3 boxes top right of the window. If it's maximised you shouldn't be able to drag it anywhere.

    OMG! I'm such a muppet! dunce.gif

    I presumed as the page was almost full size that it 'was' maximised and that clicking the middle button would make it smaller!

    Thank you so much and I apologise for asking such a stupid question embarassed.gif.
