Sidebar Bug

[Travis King]

Does anyone know if MS has any plans in SP1 or the like to fix the sidebar
bug where the gadgets reposition themselves from time to time after restart?
Look at what it did on this restart.

How did the screen look before the reboot?

It looked like this... This is the first time that I've seen it put a
gadget on top of another gadget but it has rearranged the gadgets many
times. For example, the clock will no longer be on the top or the CPU meter
may get moved to the top or the weather gadgets might get mixed up. Thanks.

Before anybody asks out of concern, that Mediascum Death List file on my
desktop is a list of the dates and times that our cable Internet has died.

Mine creep to the left by a few pixels on most bootups, I have just
detached clock and calendar.

Yeah, I think I noticed mine does that too.

Confirmed, just moved my weather gadget off of the sidebar and back on and
it's probably a good two or three pixels to the left of the other weather
gadgets... See the screenshot below:
