My IE boxes in the taskbar have recently started showing one letter only. It
shows the name normally at first, but after several page visits, It changes
to the first letter only. The only change I have done is install a new
Norton Internet security version and software for a new Canon Printer.
Anyone have any ideas?

The more pages you open, the smaller the taskbar buttons, the less they can
display.

For relief: Control Panel > Taskbar and Start menu > Taskbar tab > checkmark
in Group similar Taskbar buttons.

I am having the very same problem, Mike. And it isn't caused by taskbar
crowding, and Ted suggests. When you open the IE window that shows one
letter on the task bar, it opens and shows the same one letter in the window
title. So it isn't related to the task bar at all.

Mike, I also recently installed NIS 2006, and I wonder if that is the
culprit somehow?
