Hello,
I'm on a Mac and I've installed Windows XP on it to be able to test the sites I create on IE 7.
My problem is that my Windows switches to coherence mode and I can't stand it.
It activated by itself, I never asked for it, and I can't find how to restore a normal display.
Wherever I look, I find how to switch it on but NEVER how to turn it off.
I'm on the verge of a nervous breakdown.
I hate Windows.
Please help me! :D
Configuration: Mac OS X / Firefox 3.6.10

You don't specify it, but let's assume that you installed Parallels Desktop for that. So it's indeed the "Coherence" mode of Parallels Desktop that we're talking about...
If that's the case, you need to go to the "View" menu of Parallels Desktop and select a different display mode. Personally, I prefer to keep things separate, so I always use "Window" mode or "Full Screen" mode. You can choose the default mode in the preferences.
