Taskbar not Auto Hiding

[Jack]

I am running XP and my task bar is not auto hiding. I
have autohide turned on and lock the taskbar is turned
off. If I turn off auto-hide and click ok. The screen
moves up a little bit as normal. When I click auto-hide,
it will but as soon as I move my mouse down to it, it
comes up and stays that way. Any thoughts? TIA

If you didn't have the mouse to unhide the task bar, how else could you do
it?

I had the same problem. The Windows XP Autohide feature is very
buggy. After many installs it will work for a little while then stop
working.

Grab "Taskbar Activate"
