I’m with Dave (3Jun09) on this. Microsoft’s ‘wisdom’ is not infinite. I pity those with netbooks where space is already at a premium. Rather than let MSFT waste __my__ pixels, I too am reverting to IE7 until & unless MSFT comes to its senses. Jeez, if you allowed it in IE7 how hard can it be to continue that flexibility in IE8?

IE8 Favorites Bar is NOT like the IE7 Links Bar. It cannot be dragged up to the Menu Bar. Don’t tell me to uncheck the Lock the toolbars, it is already unlocked. Microsoft has decided they know more about what I want and need than I do. There are only 4 or 5 items on the Menu Bar, and I only had a few URLs on my Links Bar, so pretty much two blank lines taking up valuable web page space. So in IE7 I just dragged the Links Bar up to the same line as the Menu Bar, and whalla, I have more viewable web page space. IE8…YUCK! I uninstalled it.
