taskbar annoyance

I use applications that have buttons near the bottom of the screen. If I
move the mouse to those buttons and click, the taskbar unexpectedly jumps up
and intercepts the click.

I assume that Windows thinks it is being helpful, but this is really a pia.
How can I turn off this "feature"?

"Enhance pointer precision" is off.

You can probably skirt the problem by relocating your taskbar on the
TOP of the screen.
 
But I WANT it to auto-hide. I just don't want it to pop up unless the cursor
actually gets over that little bar. "Approaching it" isn't what I want.

But thanks anyway.

Thanks, but then I'd have to move the Task Bar around from edge to edge,
depending on which application is in the foreground. That's a worse problem
than I have now.
 
Is it anything to do with "snap to"?
