Taskbar moon4707 12/16/2008 5:06:00 AM Hi, I have Windows XP Pro. When I unlock my taskbar, there is a vertical line between the last object on the task bar and the tray that you can hoover over to produce a two-headed arrow; moving that vertical line over objects on the taskbar hides them. I don't know what happens, but that vertical line no longer appears. How can I get it back to be able to hide items on my taskbar (i.e., make them appear in a menu)? I have performed several reboots, but this did not help. Thank you.
