    I recently switched up my taskbar to display at the top and moved my dock down to the bottom. I'm hooked but it sucks because apps are giving no respect to my taskbar now.

    Party Poker, Yahoo Music Engine, even the Windows volume control are opening at the very top of the screen under the taskbar.

    What can I do here? Half the time I have to lock/unlock the taskbar which slides the windows down just to be able to move the windows or close them.

    How about set it to auto hide.

    Same problem here. Poor programming if you ask me. Activesync and many other apps simply don't get it.

    Cheers,
