Suddenly, the taskbar...

Suddenly, the taskbar (under my desktop) is two rows instead of one. And
there are programs there which I did not start. And the programs do not have
a 'close' option. Each program has a 'delete' option -- however, if I choose
'delete' the shortcut icon is deleted from my desktop, and I do not want
that -- I only want to stop the program (for which there is an icon) from
running.

How would I get my taskbar back to one row under my desktop, and **close**
the running programs which I did not start?

I am running Windows XP Home with SP2.

Thank you,

Barry Karas

You seem to have posted this in the wrong forum. Post in a Windows XP forum
instead of here in Office's Outlook forum.

Not an Outlook question, but just grab the top edge of the taskbar and drag
it down to make it one row again.
