Dolphin won't restore to right size.

[Brian Cluff]

That's weird.  I wonder if there is something to the previous suggestion 
about other screens and maybe how they overlap.  The only other thing 
that I've seen that would do stuff like that to windows is a stray 
panel, perhaps on that got shoved off the side of the screen.

If you ALWAYS want it to start at a particular size you could change the 
setting from "Remember" to "Apply Initially" and then it won't matter 
what size it was when it was closed.
