Inconsistent Folder Naming
If you rename a folder via the Start Menu, the change is reflected in Windows Explorer. However, if you rename something (like the "Computer" folder) in explorer, the change doesn't happen in the start menu.

Superbar IE8 Tab Switching Bugs

1. The tab images don't update properly all the time. In the image below, the "JCXP.net" page does not currently look like that.
2. (more...)
I think that:
1. The tab images should update, even when the tab is not active.
2. IE8 should be brought to then front AND switch to the selected tab when clicking on a thumbnail.
