Thanks Dave: It doesn't always do this. It happens when I get the nag. Last
time I fixed it by deleted a bunch of stuff in recently visited. When I move
it to the bottom it's fine but when I move it back to the top it's still
off-set like this. I'm a bit surprised there's no way to disable this either
within Vista or with some add-in. I don't know how Mac puts up with it. It's
totally unacceptable to me! Maybe it'll have a fix with SP1....
