Rampaging stupidity in IE8: Episode 1

I know I've bitched about this before, but seriously:

Give me back control of my menus and toolbars.

I don't want the 'Completely destroy your Links list' button on the toolbar.  I don't want it to exist in IE period, but at least for the LOVE OF GOD let me take it off so I don't accidentally click on it and... destroy my carefully arranged Links list.  Why the fuck are you punishing me for using Links since IE6 by making it irredeemably irritating to use now?  I can't even take that stupid button off the toolbar.  I can't even arrange my toolbars the way I want to, and instead I have to put up with 75% wasted space.  GREAT IDEA GUYS.  WAY TO GO.

Yes, I suppose if I had someone missed the convenience of Links and setting up my toolbars for fast access to my most used Favorites for two iterations of your product, then yes, maybe you do need to throw it in my face.  But guess what?  I DIDN'T and now you've made it so that I CAN'T FUCKING USE IT ANYMORE.  Because you know, I want to just dump crap links all over my toolbars and then have to manually go in and organize them.  WOW WHY DON'T YOU MAKE A BUTTON THAT HELPS ME ADD A SHORTCUT AND ORGANIZE IT AT THE SAME TIME!  Oh wait, YOU DID.  And then somehow for an UPDATE YOU TOOK IT AWAY.  Why doesn't this strike anyone besides me as utterly asinine?

Speaking of asinine....  Give me one good reason why I can't move a toolbar up to the same level as the Menu bar.  I could before.  I can in Firefox, Opera, even fucking Safari will let me move toolbars around the way I want to.  This is some seriously gimp ass shit, and you know it.  It's not innovative, it's just goddamn annoying.  I seriously hope a meteor hits whatever jackass came up with this idea for a GUI that YOU CAN'T FUCKING USE and is, in fact, CRIPPLED by it's graphic limitations.

Oh sweet merciful heaven, I can't take it anymore.  Off you go.  I can't look at the screen that way anymore, I'll come back and try again in another month.
