Does file explorer funtion in the same way for you dirk? I usually have multiple instances of file explorer open. It is a pain to open them in the current (7057) setup.

explorer is the old way. ie is the only one that works this new way.
Right click on taskbar and go up to toolbars and see if quicklaunch is listed there. I will bet it's there. That's not default. Someone set it up. Let us know.
It has always been like this in all of the different builds, what you're describing is the option "never combine" in the "Taskbar and Start Menu Properties".
There's three different settings for the "Taskbar buttons":
1. "Always combine, hide labels"
2. "Combine when taskbar is full"
3. "Never combine"
But as I said, nothing's new under the sun...
That's not what is going on here. Unless you have to restart after you change it. I tested all three options. None of them are doing what he is describing. See the screenshots he posted. His is acting like a true quick launch live XP and Vista.
Dirk,
Thats a bug, the reason you have two Internet Explorer icons is because Explorer uses heuristics and an APPID registry value for mapping applications to their associated taskbar icon... Somehow your IE signature changed or its APPID changed hence the second IE icon.
That exact taskbar application behavior was explained during the PDC last year

Chrome currently has zero plans about supporting Windows7, Firefox is however making their browser completely integrated with Windows 7`s new Explorer features :)
