Any chance of canceling the Language bar?

Is there any chance that I can cancel the language bar but still be able to switch language interface?

Because it's kinda take place and when I use Mac visual styles the taskbar is bigger than it should be just because of the lang bar.

10x.

I use Japanese and I use a free program called IME Watcher, which removes the language bar and replaces it with a taskbar icon (which is also skinnable, comes with OSX-like themes too). I believe it supports Chinese and Korean as well, but doubt if it works for other languages.

Damn, I really need a way to remove it, it drives me crazy, any chance that software supports Hebrew?

you can disable it and still change your keyboard layout via shortcut keys. left alt+shift by default, and it's configured in control panel / regional and blah blah

btw i was unaware that the damn thing increased taskbar height, thanks for enlightening me
