Free prog that helps get around the WinXP bug where the task bar does not auto hide sometimes and similar problems: "Don't let programs decide whether you can get access to the taskbar! Don't let the taskbar hide your applications because you have gone close to the edge of the screen with your mouse! Taskbar Activate manages activation and deactivation of the Windows taskbar. It is specialy usefull for accessing the taskbar with special applications running (full screen windows, always on top windows, ...). etc"
