Gadgets moving after restart

Hi,

I have moved my taskbar to the left of my screen and placed a gadget in the bottom right corner. My problem comes after a reboot.

The gadget moves, I think its because it tries to move it from under where the taskbar would be if I had it on the bottom. If anybody can help me fix this please post back.



Thanks in advance

Tried, and didn't seem to help.
If anyone else has an idea please post.

Guys, I made a small simple gadget for text editing. You can download and try the installation for it on my website (of course, for free):

I'm suffering from the same problem. I believe it's because I use an external monitor with my laptop at work. The screen resolution automatically changes depending on which monitor/TV I connect it to. This tends to screw up the gadget location. I'm still searching for a fix. Let me know if you find one.
