Vista Busness. Just today my taskbar will disappear and then reappear only
when I mouse-over it. What has happened to cause this new behavior?
 
Sounds like your Taskbar is set to auto-hide.

Hit Start on your keyboard, type Taskbar and Start menu > select 'Taskbar'
(tab) > under Taskbar appearance uncheck 'Auto-hide the taskbar'.
 
Hi John,

You have got the taskbar set to auto-hide. To revert back to normal
behaviour, move the mouse cursor so that the taskbar comes back into view.
Right-click on a blank spot on the taskbar and select 'Properties' from the
menu that pops up. On the 'Taskbar' tab under 'Taskbar appearance', make sure
that the checkbox next to 'Auto-hide the taskbar' is cleared (not selected).
By default, all other options should be selected except for this one. Click
'OK' and your taskbar should remain in view.

Thank you both for your reply. Sadly the Auto-Hide is not checked, at least
via the Properties etc. Where in the registry might this setting be found so
I can check there.
