Move the Stop and Refresh buttons in IE8

In IE8 the Refresh and Stop buttons have been moved the right of the address bar while the Back and Forward buttons are still to the left of the address bar. If you want to move the Refresh and Stop buttons back to the left of the address bar (like they are on just about every browser, including previous versions of IE) right-click on an empty area in the toolbars. From the menu shown, select Customize -> Show Stop and Refresh Buttons before Address Bar. As soon as you select this option, it will move the Stop and Refresh buttons back to their normal location before the address bar.

Once Firefox got older, it got too big and too heavy. It takes too long for it to load and takes up too many system resources now, like every other browser. I would like to save the HD space and use IE8, because of the smart show-all-tabs function and the InPrivate. I still got heavy adaption problems with IE8's huge waste of space for buttons, they take up 4 lines and you can´t move them around. What a design goof...
