If I click on a link, it will open off screen. I know one of my kids has gotten on here and randomly clicked on something to make it do this but how do I get it to open up where I can see it. I can move it back onto the screen but I want it to open up already visible. Thanks

You are clicking a link on a web-page, it opens a new browser window off screen? Or does it move the current window off screen?

 

What application?

 

Have you tried making the application full-screen?

 

Do you have more than one monitor?

after you click the link and it opens off screen, move the window to where you want it. Then hit Ctrl + N for a new window. after the new window opens move it to where you want it if it isn't already there, then hit Ctrl + T for a new tab. its a weird thing in IE 7, don't know why it acts that way but it does, but that should fix it.

I have rebooted. Using xp. Tried doing what was suggested but it didnt work. The link I most see it on is the reputation icon for myself at the top of each of my posts in the toolbar for the post. Although it happens on every link. If I click maximise it will open full screen but it used to always already open full screen.

This sounds kinda like this...

 

Close all your windows. Open one. Fix it the way you want it. Close all your windows. Open a new window and it should be how you had your last one you closed. If this doesn't work, let us know, it's not what I was thinking it was.
