Ookyoo! Is anyone else annoyed with Windows XP's grouping of similar windows? Well, I am. Aaa, could someone point me in the direction as to where I could turn this annoying feature off? I'd much rather click once to open a window that two or three times o.0

You can, but then you'd have to change the whole style entirely to the old one (win95/98/2000/millenium)

You get used to it actually, and it really becomes helpful. I find it easier than having 30 windows bunched across the task bar. I have no idea how to change it back though, I never worried about it. Sorry.

Arg! I've tried that already, but it insists on grouping those damn similar windows. Abdur, I've had the setting a while now, and I'm still not use to it. Just picture 8 AIM conversations, with other people replying at the same time. I'd much rather single click that click and look for the name of the person who responded (whose window won't always blink the first time >.<). Yeah, so I tried using the Windows Classic theme or something but it still groups the windows. It's really quite annoying...isn't there some way of disabling it and letting it handle multiple windows like the old Operating Systems?

Right click your task bar pick properties and uncheck group similar taskbar buttens, should do what you want.
