How do you set the size of an application window so it always opens to the same size?

Question

Sometimes I open IE, Outlook or another app and it comes up maximized, sometimes not. I want them to always be maximized. Also when you click on links on a page - can you set them to always come up maximized?

Answer 1

This worked for me:

Run IE, then hold down Ctrl + Shift + Alt while you use the mouse to size the window as you want it. Now, still holding down Ctrl + Shift + Alt, click the Close box (the X in the upper right corner of the window) to close it.  Do the same for other windows that don't open maximized.  They all should start behaving.
