Taskbar Stops Responding

[Meryl]

When I click on a taskbar item, it won't maximize the
application. Once in awhile, it will maximize, but lately
it has not been maximizing on selection. I found a
knowledgebase article, but it
(http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-
us;314228) didn't apply to me because it suggested
downloading XP SP1, which I already have. I am using
WinXP Pro with Office 2002. It's a problem with all
programs, not just MS-related programs.

Thanks for any leads.

Go to MVP Kellys website at the following address. Scroll down to line 164,

I did that and thought it was fixed, but I am still
having the problem. Thanks for the suggestion. Any others
out there?
