Notification bar

The notification bar at the far right of my screen is
stacked. How do I change it so that all of the icons in
notification are horizontal. I've tried adjusting the
height but it just won't let me! Also, this is a stupid
question but how do I change how my time is being
displayed. It's showing the date as well and I don't want
that.

Thanks a ton!
 
These two are related. Suggestions and checkpoints:

This can happen by opening Accessibility Options, etc. If the icons on the
Quick Launch bar are showing as being larger, it will result in the taskbar
being twice its height and also include the date or similar under the clock.

If this is the case, right click the Desktop/Properties/Appearance/
Advanced. Under the Item drop box choose Caption Buttons and change the
number by one, ok your way out, then rest to 25.

And/or reset your default to the XP Theme. If need be, switch to Classic
first, then back to XP Style.

Other options to consider if the above doesn't help, nor moving the glider
over toward the Start Button to list only three icons in the Quick Launch
bar:

To use the Regedit: Save the REG File to your hard disk. Double click it
and answer yes to the import prompt. REG files can be viewed in Notepad by
right clicking on the file and selecting Edit.
