HELP!
Ok, so somehow I have f*cked up firefox, and now instead of it opening popup type windows normal sized (like comment windows), they all open up narrow and unresizable.
I figured out how to make it allow me to manually resize the too-small windows, thanks to Mozilla, but I have no idea how to make it work right in the first place. I would prefer not to have to resize the stoopid things every time they open.
This only happens in MY Firefox profile, not my husband's or the dummy one I set up in the process of troubleshooting.
Any ideas? I know many of you are much bigger computer geeks than I am....

Posted by: Cardinal Martini at January 25, 2006 11:37 PMI think the trick is to resize, have no windows open in the smaller size, exit Firefox, and then that size will save as the default. However, it will get overridden otherwise.
