How to stop tabs showing when i hover mouse over Firefox taskbar icon?

After upgrading to FF6.01, and playing a bit with new tab groups feature, now every time I hover the mouse over the task bar icon, all the tabs are shown separately. I'd like to get back to showing only one tab per open Firefox browser.

In Firefox options and the tabs panel, see if you got show tab previews in the Windows taskbar checked in.

The answers are always so simple. Now, if only I could figure out why I couldn't figure out (or find) the answer myself....

I thank you very much Dave
