Usually an Internet Explorer window remembers its "state" when it is closed - i.e: if it is maximized then it should open maximized next time you open it.
If, for whatever reason your Windows install has
forgotten what it's doing - you could try this:
Open a single Internet Explorer window to the smaller size.
Drag the corners of the window until it completely fills the screen. Do not use the maximize button to enlarge the window.
Hold down the Ctrl key, keep it depressed, and using the mouse click File and then Exit on the menu bar. Do not use the "X" in the upper right corner to close the window.
Internet Explorer should now open in a full window.
If it still opens to a smaller size repeat the above instructions, substituting the "Shift" key for the "Ctrl" key.
