HI smcc, Ah, you are talking about the Restore button? Try setting it in the operating system settings: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/44217

Profiles - Where Firefox stores your bookmarks, passwords and other user data or check out the file that stores the window size information in the profile.

When you switch between a maximized window and a resizable window, Firefox generally uses the last size. If you resize the current window, then usually Firefox will use that going forward.

If the window hides the Windows Task Bar, however, that can indicate a corrupted settings file. In particular, that file stores information about what toolbars are displayed and how large various windows and dialogs were the last time you displayed them. You can rename the file to return to the default settings. Here's how:

Open your current Firefox settings (AKA Firefox profile) folder using either

• "3-bar" menu button > "?" button > Troubleshooting Information
• Help menu > Troubleshooting Information

In the first table on the page, click the "Show Folder" button. Windows should display a list of the files and folders in your Firefox profile folder.

Leaving that window open, switch back to Firefox and Exit, either:

• "3-bar" menu button > "power" button
• File menu > Exit

Pause while Firefox finishes its cleanup, then rename localstore.rdf to something like localstore.old

Start Firefox back up again. Are window sizes more normal?

Thanks, jscher2000. This seems to have solved the problem.
