With build 1840, if I clone the VA Find References results, the cloned results are docked. Before 1840 they were in a floating window.

I much prefer the floating window but don't see a setting to put the behavior back to what it was. How can I get the old behavior back?

Unfortunately this is not configurable at runtime, but you can change the configuration.

If you are using VS2010, you can edit this file:
%LOCALAPPDATA%\\Microsoft\\VisualStudio\\10.0\\Extensions\\Whole Tomato Software\\Visual Assist X\\10.6.1840.0\\VAX.pkgdef

At line 63, change "Tabbed" to "Float"

If you are using VS2005 or VS2008, you can edit this location in the registry:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\SOFTWARE\\Microsoft\\VisualStudio\\9.0\\ToolWindows\\{904F4835-1D5B-4C6B-97C8-C13447A514CC}

(use 8.0 instead of 9.0 for VS2005.)

Change the Style value from Tabbed to Float.
For VS2005/2008, you also need to run "devenv /setup" (as administrator) after making the change.

Make sure to exit all instances of Visual Studio before making either of these changes. Also, the change will need to be re-applied after update of VA.

Thanks Sean, that gets me back to the way I like it for now.
