How do I recover a window that shrank on its own? I was working on a page and all of a sudden the page started to shrink to 1/3 its size! The window is expanded. I've cleared cookies, cleared cache and yet every time I open that page it remains 1/3 its original size. This is the second page that has done this in the past month. I've installed the latest version of Firefox but to no avail. Anti virus picks up nothing.:confused:

Not sure what you may mean by shrinking or realted to a specific site, you can try the view in the menu bar and try Zoom to see if that may help

I'll try to clarify, While I have a page open and window fully expanded, the page itself shrunk down while the window remains open. Text, pictures, everything shrunk leaving a large portion of the page blank. I cannot drag the page open any larger. Magnifying will not restore the page to its original size either.

It may be the resolution of the page you are visiting and is pre-defined to make it viewable/playable, that could be the issue unless all web pages you visit do the same thing then would think it would be something else.

Would that cause it to all of a sudden shrink? This happened to only one other page. The pages were visited regularly for months prior with no issues. It also happened in the middle of a game my daughter was playing last week. With no warning it just started shrinking. If that is the case, is it correctable?

Would check your addons to see if there may be any that may or would cause something like this and disable

If not sure of an addon, you can Google it to see what it's purpose is and see if it is something that you are aware of or actually need it running.

Run in safe mode for while to see if it happens when all your extensions are disabled

No add on's installed and only net frame work 1.1, and windows move player extensions installed on vista basic.

Not really sure on this and if same while running in safe mode browser.

Would check out Firefox support forum and see if any replies may come your way

Firefox Support Home Page

Hope you do find something, I just don't have an idea other than maybe what mentioned already.
