Taskbar stuck on right side of screen

[Guest]

Hello:

I don't know how it happened, but my taskbar is now stuck
on the right side of the screen. I tried to re-position
it to the bottom of the screen, but the only thing it
allowed me to do is to adjust its width. I have re-
position a taskbar before, but I can't do it this time.
How do I move the taskbar back to the bottom of the
screen? I am using the Home editon. Thanks!

My Taskbar has Moved
a.. The taskbar is locked by default in XP, other operating system may or may not be locked. Right click a blank area of the taskbar, choose Lock The Taskbar on the menu if it is already ticked, else press escape or click away from the menu.
b.. Press Ctrl + Esc to open the Start Menu
c.. Press Esc to close the Start Menu but leaves it selected
d.. Press Alt + Space to open the System Menu for a window
e.. Press M to select Move (the M is underlined) on the System Menu
f.. then press an arrow key till the mouse cursor is in the middle, then down arrow till it reaches the bottom. Watch the mouse cursor as the taskbar snaps so won't do anything till the mouse cursor is 1/2 way. Note the arrow keys are moving the mouse cursor not the mouse.
g.. press Enter to accept changes or Esc to cancel the move.
The taskbar can also be dragged with the mouse unless it locked.

Right click on it and then uncheck "lock task bar" and then placing the cursor at the top edge of the bar click and hold the button down and then drag towards the bottom of the screen and it will pop down there. This may take a couple of tries to get the exact spot that you need to click on but that's how you do it. }:~)
