About half of the time, when I open a new Firefox window, the window is as big as my monitor. It is not maximized, just as big as the monitor.

I have a wide screen monitor, and normally have the Firefox windows around 60% of the width of the screen. It normally open up with the regular size, but lately it has been opening up way too big.

I use Firefox 3.6.8 on Windows 7 x64. Windows is running in a virtual machine under VMWare Fusion 3.1.1 on my Mac.

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)

I tried that. It didn't hep.

It still opens up as a really big window about half of the time. The other half of the time, it opens up as the regular size.
