Your right... I wonder why the button in the toolbar requires a restart then... strange.
That said the developer tools included are a good step forward and very helpful. The ability to flip your sight between different IE rendering versions is wonderful and reduces the need to have multiple IE's installed.
Does anyone know if the switching also changes the Script handling so that detection scripts get the right answer?

... requires a restart of all IE instances.
