I have Vista and my browser screen suddenly has gone large so I can't see my address line. Is there an F-key I can use to make it go back to normal size? My browser screen takes up the whole monitor. I want it to go back to normal size. thanks.

I tried the F11 key to restore the browser size to normal and it didn't work. What else can I do?

You may be in Full Screen Mode. The F11 key toggles Full Screen Mode on or off.
