The menu bar is borked:

But no worries, IE Tab in Firefox still works just fine

Update 1/29: Upgraded to RC1 yesterday (forcefully, I might add, as I thought I had removed the beta and reverted back to IE7, which didn’t fix the problem.) The same results as above when I launched the browser, but it seems to have disappeared when I fired it up today:

“Windows Vista is the most secure operating system we’ve ever released,” said Kevin Turner, chief operating officer. “In the first 180 days we’ve had far fewer high-severity vulnerabilities than XP. We’ve had 12 in Vista. We had 25 in XP.”

(Yahoo toolbar on, Google off)

It would appear that Internet Explorer is having a bit of an identity crisis.
