I must ask again as nobody has responded. How do you turn off the feature in IE 5.5?

I unchecked personalized menus in the taskbar options, and yes it stops the truncating in the program menu, but not in the favorites drop-down menu. Argh. I like Microsoft, but forcing interface features on you with no obvious ways to change them (and no mention in any Help file), is VERY annoying. Argh.
