The way I've always done it when I run into that problem is....when the new window opens do the old mouse cursor on the top...bottom, and sides thing. When the cursor does the the double arrow drag the window until it fills the screen. After it fills the screen exit the page. Then try the open a new window and see if it sticks. Usually works for me.

If Shadowman's suggestion doesn't fix you up, start IE, right click any link on a web page, and select Open in a New Window. Go back to the first IE window you opened and close it. Return to the second window and manually drag it to fill the screen. (Do not use the maximize button, for that's a temporary setting that will not be retained.) Now press the Ctrl button, and close this second window, holding the Ctrl button depressed, using 'close' in the "File menu" (important!). This should force Windows to remember the settings, and windows will now open to the size it was when you drug the corners to almost fill the screen.
