All of a sudden I notice that my task bar is no longer showing any tasks (such as Internet Explorer is running). How can I get my task bar to actually show the computer's current tasks?
My OS is Windows Xp Pro.
Thanks in advance.

Only looking quickly - it looks like you quick launch bar is taking up the entire length of the taskbar - maybe check that first?
Tricky, thanks for responding, but the funny thing is when I disable the quick launch the entire taskbar dissapears, so I don't think space is a problem. Is it possible that I could have inadvertantly disabled a setting... Any more ideas?
I just tried that--it doesn't take care of the problem. Anyone have any suggestions?
I still think that you have accidentally dragged you quick launch all the way to the right side of the screen - which has given tasks about 1pixel to show running windows. right click on the bar and de-select quick launch and see if they re-appear.
When I de-select quick launch the taskbar dissapears. Then, with my cursur I try to drag the taskbar back up, so it's visible. It doesn't appear.
However, if quick lanuch or any other toolbar is checked/selected I can drag the taskbar back up.
perhaps there is a another program screwing with your taskbar?
its just a thought..
or it could be time for a reformat.
Edit:
Found this with google http://www.kellys-korner-xp.com/taskbarplus!.htm maybe that would help..
Thanks, d-shade. My taskbar is now fully functioning. I guess the program did the trick.
