Taskbar and Screen

I always had a thin (about 1/4") Taskbar with all the icons in one row. Now
the taskbar is about an inch thick with a double row of icons. I have tried
removing some of the icons but it doesn't help. Also, previously when I
minimized a program I had a small little icon at the bottom. Now when I
minimize a program it is about 2 inches long at the bottom of the taskbar.
Finally, I now have a black border around my screen - the whole screen isn't
filled.

Can anyone help?
 
Have you tried mousing over the top edge of the task bar
until you have the vertical, bi-directional arrow? If
you have that, left-mouse and drag down to the original
size. Do I understand the issue correctly?
 
Hi,

Start here:

Restore Taskbar to Default Functionality (Line 164)

To use the VBS Files: Download .vbs file and save it to your hard drive (you
may want to right click and use Save Target As). Double click the vbs
file. You will be prompted when the script is done.

NOTE: If your anti-virus software warns you of a "malicious" script, this
is normal if you have "Script Safe" or similar technology enabled. These
scripts are not malicious, but they do make changes to the System Registry.
