New machine. My taskbar will not auto-hide, despite the fact that I have auto-hide selected in the taskbar properties. Whiskey Tango Foxtrot?

Brian, no it is unlocked, both in the right click dropdown and the box is unchecked when going into the taskbar properties

XP btw

Russ, my stomach still has the acidity of mexican water from the last all night, Rogue Ale, pre-turkey hunting mission I went on. I am fueled purely by copenhagen and diet pepsi at the moment. Diet pepsi sucks, but it was either that or beer, lol.

Okay, do you have any icons in the system tray which popup messages? Some of them don't allow the taskbar to hide after they appear.
