    Ungrouping taskbar items ?


    How do I keep Windows 7 from positioning all the Firefox buttons together ?
    When I open a new Firefox window, I would like the button to appear at the right end of the taskbar.
    However, Windows 7 positions it with the other Firefox buttons and will not let me move an individual button.
    They all move as a group.

    (Note: this doesn't just apply to Firefox, it will occur with all applications that allow multiple instances).

Well, I'm sure this has probably been posted a million times, except none of those solutions in those threads have helped, so I need some new advice. Basically, I cannot pin items. I do get a 'Pin this program to taskbar' when right clicking a program that is running. When clicking this, it...
