blank spaces in windows taskbar

I was just wondering if anybody knows of some way to create blank space in the taskbar. I have recently downloaded a spotlight clone but it overlaps over my windows clock. I was just wondering if there was some toolbar that anybody knows of that is resizable and just makes empty space in the taskbar. THis would really help me mostly when I'm trying to tell the time so that I don't have to click F8 and wait for konfabulator to load. :)

it can be done by tweaking the theme you're using. You're using msstyle or WB? I can help you with WB ;)

and i can help you with msstyles....just post a mockup of what you want it to look like

I'm using WB and I'll try to get a screenshot up soon. Basically a quick description would be that I have the status bar icons and then let's say it's 4:30 I would see 4: and then the spotlight application. I know that spotlight is simply a seperate window and not a part of the taskbar so i just need to put a little spacer under the spotlight clone to imitate as if it was part of the taskbar.

zacharia.cd whats the meaning of your signature....its says ive got hacked?....is that true?

No, it shouldn't say you got hacked. It just shows some info that's easily available anyway...

Just a clever trick that's supposed to freak you out ;).

It's just a joke I played on some dumb idiots in another forum. I hope it doesn't freak anybody out on this one. So does anybody have any idea how to do this.
