How to run Internet Explorer 6.0 in Kiosk Mode?

Kiosk mode means setting the browser window to full screen view with just a scroll bar for navigation. To provide additional controls, such as access to the Back, Forward, or Refresh buttons, you can set Internet Explorer 6 in partial kiosk mode, which includes a smaller tool bar at the top of the browser window.

To add a Full Screen button to this tool bar, so that you can move easily from full screen view to the standard browser window, do this:

a. Right-click the tool bar at the top of the browser window, and then click Customize.

b. In the Customize Tool bar dialog box, click Full Screen under Available tool bar buttons.
c. click Add, and then click Close.

To hide the tool bar at the top of the window entirely, do this:

a. When in full screen mode, right-click the tool bar.

b. Click Auto-Hide.

Now you can view Web pages at full size without any controls getting in the way. When you want to view the tool bar again, move the pointer over the top of the Web page. If you don’t want to add a Full Screen button to the tool bar, you can also toggle between full screen and the standard view by pressing F11.
