Default Full-screen login window

For some unexplainable reason, my login window (to choose an identity) for
Outlook Express 6 has gone to be full-screen. How do I get it back to a small
window in the center of the screen?

Never heard of such a thing. Double-click on the border, perhaps?

Thank you for the suggestion. It worked, but then when I exited OE and tried
to get back in, the Choose Identity window was back to full-screen.

I finally got an idea. I changed the Run property for my OE shortcut from
Maximized to Normal window, and now the Choose Identity window is the small
size that I prefer.

Thanks again for your help!

YW & thanks for the feedback.

One or more options/settings in an ever-growing number of third-party
applications may have been disallowing the system change from "sticking".
These include but are not limited to Ad-aware Pro's Ad-Watch, Spybot Tea
Timer, SpywareBlaster, SpySweeper, Spyware Doctor, CounterSpy, AVG
Anti-Spyware, Norton AntiVirus, McAfee VirusScan and/or Antispyware, NOD32,
and Zone Alarm (Free, Pro, & Security Suite).
