Ok. Now I do not know what I did, but it stopped doing it. I put up with that for days and now it just stopped.

Sorry.

You might not think I would get stressed out about moving my arm two and a half inches, but you would be wrong - it bugs the hell out of me when windows get attached to the edges. But it is working again - I just have to let it go.

I just learned how to fix this.....it's a "windows" thing.....open one program window, then open a second program window on top of it, manually size the second program window to the size window you want programs to open up in, then close the first progam followed by the second from the taskbar.....and all programs will now open to the size that you set the second program before you closed it......

Well, the usual way to do it is to right click desktop icon \ Properties \ Run: .....choose the size you want the window to open in.....then apply. Alot of "cleaning" programs will wipe out the "remember last opened size" folder \ advanced option.....so it ends up getting changed, reverting to default size, etc.....

Here are all the options that I know of....

1) Open Explorer.....Tools (menu) \ Folder Options \ View (tab) \ check "Rember each folder's view settings".....apply....

2) If #1 doesn't work, then....

what he means is, get a Mac!

windows has always given me problems with, especially interenet explorer. what i do any more is simply persist and windows finally allows it, whatever, after a while.

steve,

as an artist, just for a whim, go find a mac store and test em out. talk to the salesperson and ask a ton of questions. you might, could just possibly, in the slightest way, even maybe a little, just the tiniest bit, be somewhat, mildly impressed with at least parts of the mac. i almost bought one last time i was in

I have checked out the Macs and they are nice .....but all the extra programming "garbage" with windows really isn't an issue anymore with how hardware (CPUs, multiple cores, RAM, graphics cards, etc) has progressed.....so it all comes down to compatability and options.....and XP is the clear choice in that regard, IMHO.....

what i hear, ron, is that that is called 'windows 7'. and, it's supposedly a stripped down vista, at least in the early beta versions (which are out there). but, i heard recently, that they (MS) is now starting to add back some of the vista features, so, who knows

hehe, yes, only seven years. what they could maybe come up with that would be new is a stable operating system. lol. gotta love the Mac commercials frankly, vista shld have never been built. all they had to do was take XP and fix it and expand it a bit. i'd have been happy as a clam had they done so. but, for some reason, MS thinks they have to completely re-write the system every three to five years. it's pretty insane and we never end up with a stable system where our old software continues to work. and the only reason i can see for MS to do it the way they do is greed. bah!
