Windows Toolbox: Broaden Your Web View With IE New Window Maximizer

Tired of double-clicking a Web shortcut or opening a new Internet Explorer window only to have it appear less than maximized? The folks at JiiSoft were, too, so they created IE New Window Maximizer. With this handy program running in your desktop tray, every IE window will open maximized or (if you prefer) in full-screen mode, which hides the title bar and other browser elements. The application also lets you designate a hot-key that hides or closes all open IE windows. It's free! It's easy! What more could you want? Browse to JiiSoft to download your copy.
