Notification area not displaying icons correctly

[The Stoat]

Hi all,

The notification area on my task bar is not displaying icons correctly.
When the 'hide inactive icons' is checked there are two arrows on the
notification area and when I click one to display the hidden icons the arrow
goes two the left leaving behind a series of vertical lines. When 'hide
inactive icons' is unchecked there are thicker vertical lines, the area is a
black or white block or it is simply transparent.

Any ideas anyone?

Thanks for any help,

Matt.
