Stupid computer non-help screen

[listersgirl]

Help!

I have two stupid questions about IE that maybe someone can answer:

1) Is there a way to set it so that the default is that links, when clicked, open in a new window?

2) Is there a way to designate it so that any new windows automatically open up maximized?

I suppose I should be thankful that these are my most pressing problems this morning, but it's irritating me that I can't figure them out myself.

You can Shift-click, too. I don't know if that's any easier, though.

It probably would be, except that I usually have a CD case in my other hand, because I AM AN OLD WOMAN and CD writing is very, very tiny. Sigh.

Plus that requires using two hands in a coordinated fashion. I could never, ever be a drummer.

I took percussion techniques in university, and I was very good at it, as long as all I had to do was count out the rhythms. I am a rhythm master! But as soon as I had to actually, you know, make the sounds, my natural ability to be a complete doofus came shining through.
