I'm sure there must be an easy answer to this one...

I resized the width of the task bar by mistake (wasn't locked) and now it
will not go any thinner than double width - Help please.

First, unlock the Taskbar (right-click on taskbar, uncheck
"Lock the Taskbar")

Click and drag the separator bar over to the right of the taskbar.
(It's the separator that looks like four dots and then three dots
running side by side vertically). It seems to allow you do a double-
decker effect with the task bar. Once you drag the lower one to
the right of the taskbar, it allows you to resize the taskbar.

Move the mouse curser to the top edge of the task bar until it becomes a
double headed arrow. Hold the left mouse button and drag the edge downwards.
