Implemented in 7+ Taskbar Tweaker v4.5.5.5 beta.
10 years ago
Fixed in v4.5.5.
I believe that it's an issue with the MinHook library, which was fixed in the beta version (v4.5.5.2). Please try it, and let me know if you encounter similar errors with it.
Please provide more information, so I'll be able to reproduce the issue:
Here are old versions of the tweaker (no need to do system restore):

Perhaps it has nothing to do with the tweaker, and system restore fixed something else.
- Your Windows version.
- Your tweaker options (advanced options too, if you're using any).
- Your taskbar properties.

Here's what I know about the issue:
* It seems to happen only on Windows 7, according to the reports.
* It's related to the networking activity of the update checking. Turning update checking off seems to fix the issue.
* The issue seems to show up when the PC runs for a long time without restarts.
Unfortunately, I wasn't able to find a way to reproduce the crash reliably. Also, stack traces don't provide enough information, as the crash happens in a system module.

How many donations do we need to get this done?Currently, the most valuable donation I could receive is an extra day in the weekend. Could you arrange that? :)
Jokes aside, I'll try to look at it when I have some time. Thanks for the reference for Classic Shell, it will definitely help.
I could reproduce the bug on my machine on Windows 8.1. What's more important: I could reproduce it even when 7+ Taskbar Tweaker is not running, which means that it's an issue of either the taskbar or Firefox, not of the tweaker.
A further investigation has to be made to understand what causes the issue, and whether only Firefox is affected. Also, you might want to file a bug report to the Firefox team.

Unfortunately, Excel doesn't play well with the taskbar. See my reply here:

There's no real fix for the taskbar, Excel is the program that requires fixing.

I will try your settings on a Windows 7 machine when I have the chance.
Meanwhile, please try the following:
Restore the tweaker's thumbnail settings to default (or even better, close it altogether), hover over the Firefox button to show the thumbnail, and wait for a couple of additional seconds. Is a tooltip shown up above the thumbnail?
It should, and the tweaker relies on this behavior. If it doesn't, then it's probably an issue of Windows.
