Is it normal for windows not to be full screen in Parallell? I remember reading about this a while back but i thought this was suppose to have been fixed by now. I am running RC2. Any ideas?

Works fine in full screen mode for me (RC2). Do you mean a maximized window doesn't fill the screen? Not sure if I understand the problem.
I do not like those green links and spam.
I do not like them, Sam I am.

When I make the emulated windows window go full screen, the screen itself is full screen but windows is like in a square, it doesnt scretch all the way to the right and left borders of the display like its suppose to. I tried to explain best I could, any ideas?

You might want to do one of two things:
1. Right-click on the Windows desktop and change the screen resolution of Windows.
2. Open the Parallels preferences and check 'Allow Parallels to change mac resolution', or whatever it is exactly.
