I have a weird problem where IE ( when maximized ) is positioned about 20 pixels lower than what my file manager is. When I first loaded the theme ( Glaze 1.1 ) all worked fine. I've tried restarting, changing themes and back. but I can't figure out why only IE has this prob and not all apps. any help would be great
thanks

Strange...when I beta testing Directory Opus to add Windowblinds Support one of the test builds had that exact problem...the maximised window would be the correct size, but would position itself about 20 pixels too low. Unfortunately I have no idea what caused the problem, and it disappeared in the next test build I received.

I also have this problem with Glaze on my home machine, but not my work machine. Both run XP but my home machine has dual monitors. Disabling the second monitor makes no difference though. The problem isn't consistent either. Sometimes IE is 20 pixels low, other times it's not. Because it's inconsistent I have bothered to try and narrow the cause to a specific module.

Actually I wonder if it might be related to user switching. My partner runs the normal Explorer shell so I wonder if IE gets confused when we a both logged in.
