Taskbar (vertical) shrinking

[Phil Schoen]

I've been having the same problem as the post below, and
I'm wondering whether anyone else has found a better
solution or knows if Microsoft is working on this bug?

TIA

Finally, I found the source of the problem myself and I
want you to know it because I think it's a bug in Windows
XP.

It looks like the language bar doesn't work properly when
using the Windows XP theme. In particular, it brings the
problem that I experienced, that is: when using a
vertical taskbar, the width of the taskbar reduces each
time I logoff. To come to this conclusion, I tried these
different combinations:

- Using the Windows XP theme with the language bar
in the toolbar: the taskbar shrinks on logoff.
- Using the Windows XP theme without the language
bar in the toolbar: no problem.
- Using the Windows Classic theme with the language
bar in the toolbar: no problem.
- Using the Windows Classic theme without the
language bar in the toolbar: no problem.

Now that you know the source of the issue, I hope
Microsoft can resolve it as soon as possible. For the
time being, I'll simply use the language bar outside of
the taskbar to avoid the problem.
