Re:Check this registry item.
You didn't indicate whether you have tried the suggestion of adding that entry to the registry.

Josh,
I'm trying that tonight and will report on results.

Josh,
I tried the various registry edits, but they caused more problems than provided cures. No doubt, I am to blame, i.e., flubbed something. However, I read all of the MS Knowledge Base articles on the Taskbar. Finally, I just got tired of the Taskbar being at the top of the screen so began to experiment. Surprise (because I don't know why the actions worked): 1) Holding down ctrl and clicking and holding left mouse button, I moved the Quick Launch icons out of the Taskbar; 2) Holding down ctrl again and clicking and holding left mouse button in blank (gray) area of Taskbar, I was able to move it to the bottom of the Desktop; 3) Finally, holding left mouse button in blank (gray) area of Quick Launch icons bar I moved it onto the Taskbar and positioned it. After shutting down and rebooting, the Taskbar remains at the bottom of the desktop. Again, I would lose if someone asked me to explain why this worked. Now, I've begun the files backup process in preparation for converting to WinXP Pro. No doubt, I shall be seeking advice from you fine folks on that forum. Y'all are the greatest.
