When I hit the minimize button on Firefox to use the side by side view with Excel in Windows 7, my Firefox window gets larger and won't give me an arrow in the corner to reduce the frame size.
I can't find a menu to resize my minimized window as it is actually larger than the normal window. The frame of firefox goes right off the screen and will not give me a corner arrow to drag it down to size. Normal window view is just fine. How do I correct this?

It is possible that the screen is too wide or too high and that the scroll bars fall off.
Open the system menu via Alt+Space and see if you can resize that window.
If that works then close Firefox to save that setting.

Window sizes and positions are stored in localstore.rdf in the Profile Folder.
Delete localstore.rdf or rename the file to localstore.rdf.sav in the Profile Folder to test if the file is corrupted.
See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Corrupt_localstore.rdf
(caution: do not delete the localstore.rdf file in the Firefox program installation folder)
Note:
Deleting the file localstore.rdf will reset the customizations of the toolbars to the defaults.
You can rename "localstore.rdf" to "localstore.rdf.sav" to test if that solves it.
Then you can restore the customization by copying "localstore.rdf.sav" to "localstore.rdf" if it didn't work.
