He/she will have the same prob with the Message window (x 888, y 262).
The default position however is left upper corner of the screen.
If gnubg.exe does not find the file .gnubgautorc, that's where the windows
will be opened.
Thus deleting the file .gnubgautorc is the easiest way when you have a
800x600 monitor.
