Our very first Win7/IE8 bug & KB article!?

FYI:

Favorites may not show up in the Internet Explorer 8 address bar after
upgrading to Windows 7
["This only happens if the machine did not have Internet Explorer 8
installed before upgrading to Windows 7...This problem is caused by a bug in
the Microsoft Products listed in the Applies-To section." <snicker>]

First one with a typo? <EG>

<quote>
1.. Change the value of "PersistantHandler" to "{8CD34779-9F10-4f9b-ADFB-B3FAEABDAB5A}".
</quote>


FWIW in XP that's what I have in (Default) there already but there is also a

OriginalPersistentHandler = "{8CD34779-9F10-4F9B-ADFB-B3FAEABDAB5A}"

What's the difference? I wonder if the lower case "f" is the thing that is changing?

I'll try to remember to look in W7 when I'm there. ; )

ICIM I have WS 4.0 installed and active on XP.
