This is driving me nuts. I must have hit some KB command to enable something that causes a window to open in full screen mode when I am holding and moving it. I do not ever use full screen, so it's not something I would enable. I've poked around prefs for a while over some days, no luck. 10.6.8 and everything up to date. Started about 6 weeks ago, no software changes at that time. Happens in Safari, FF, Word, Outlook, BBEdit etc.

What am I missing? Thanks

There are some third-party apps that add this feature if you drag the window to the top of the screen (a copy of Windows 7 does). BetterTouchTool is one. Do you have anything like that installed?
The new Mac Pro has up to 30 MB of cache inside the processor itself. That's more than the HD in my first Mac. Somehow I'm still running out of space.
