well, i guess it's a TrayServer problem...

the best way to use TrayServer is the following:

1) go to Start->Run..., type "msconfig", and press enter

2) in the Startup tab, uncheck TrayServer and click OK

3) go C:\Program Files\Common Files\Stardock, and move (NOT copy) TrayServer.exe to C:\Windows

4) go to Start->Run..., type "regedit", and press enter

5) in the Registry Editor, go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon.

note: you can go to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon instead, then the TrayServer registration will be only for the current user and not system wide.

6) the value of "Shell" should be "Explorer.exe". replace it with "Explorer.exe TrayServer.exe".

7) restart, and enjoy TrayServer :)

I fixed it, thankyou all for the help, I reinstalled the latest version and it worked fine, I realized that I was using the older version of OB.

Thankyou all so much!
