For the former, one uses the double-head arrow for all re-sizing, but the latter requires using both the double-headed arrow and the cursor. (At least I had to use both the arrow and cursor for the latter.) Am I correct? ----------- Nope. The procedures for hiding the ads are identical. 1) Use the curser to grab the Title (colored top) bar of the affected window (mailbox or individual email). Place the point of your curser within the colored top section/bar and click and hold. 2) Move the curser and the entire window will move with the curser. 3)Place the window where you cannot see the ads (below the bottom of your screen). 4) Now move your curser slightly upwards until it becomes a double sided arrow. 5) When it is double sided, click and hold again and pull the top upwards to the size you like. 6) Go to the Window menu at the top of the AOL screen and select: Remember Window Size and Position Sharon
