taskbar won't lock
Have the taskbar set w/ auto-hide turned off and the taskbar locked but I can still move/rearrange my icons on the taskbar (left side of screen).
Anything I can do to truly lock the taskbar icons down?

It works that way by design, so the User can order the icons any way they desire. I am fairly certain there is no way to disable that feature.

Hmmm, I always thought that once you locked the taskbar, the icons were locked in place until you unlocked it.
If so, then what does locking/unlocking the taskbar do?
Maybe I'm wrong in my understanding of the feature.

Than to both of you. I stand corrected and learned something as well...can't beat that.

Taskbar lockdown
Yes, you can lock down the taskbar to keep it from disappearing. It's called Auto-hide:
- Do a search for Taskbar and Start Menu Properties.
- Click the Taskbar tab at upper left.
- Uncheck the Auto-hide the taskbar box.
- Click Apply or OK at the bottom and your taskbar is now set to remain on screen at all times.
Works for me in Windows 7 Home Premium Edition
