Why won't the Taskbar hide?
I've got the taskbar set to autohide, but sometimes it won't. Sometimes when this happens one of the icons in the taskbar has a yellowish background instead of blue, and it's this application which is requesting attention - once I've opened this window and done whatever it's asking me to do, the taskbar will autohide again. But often none of the icons is highlighted. If I've got 20 or 30 windows open, how am I supposed to find out which one is stopping the taskbar from autohiding? If it won't autohide, it's normally covering the horizontal scroll bar or some other important feature of the window I'm trying to use, so them I have to make the window of this application smaller. Eventually it seems that autohide is more hassle than it's worth - I might as well have the b*** taksbar there all the time.
Any ideas on how to overcome this annoyance?
