Two identical toolbars

[Tammy]

The tool bar on my laptop is very unstable. Sometimes, I don't see no toolbar
at all and sometimes I see two identical icons on my toolbar. For example,
when I open outlook, I will see two identical icons shown on the toolbar.
When I clicked on one of the Outlook icons and closed the program, both icons
will be gone. Please help. I am using Windows XP Home Edition (service pack
2).

Hi PD43,

I think I should say task tray area where toolbars are displayed. Sorry, I
am too confused. I have two identical icons shown for each program that is in
use.

Line 117. Restore Taskbar and Start Menu
Line 164. Restore Taskbar and Desktop to Default Functionality

Hi Elmo,

Thank you. My PC has been working normally these days, so I had not had a
chance to try which one works better. Once it acts strange again (which I
really do not wish to happen), I will give them a try. Thank you in advance.
