2 Problems

Certain docklets not displaying anything, taskbar permenently disappeared

from WinCustomize Forums
I am having two problems with Objectdock 1.5. First of all, certain docklets sometimes stop working and display nothing. Restarting Objectdock does fix this problem, but I would like to find a way not to have to restart Objectdock to fix the problem. Secondly, when I close Objectdock, the taskbar doesn't show up again. Even if I change the setting to not hide the windows taskbar, the windows taskbar stays hidden. Does anyone know how to fix either of these problems?

I just realized that the docklets that get messed up are all docklets that are using systats, which is probably why they aren't working correctly. Does anyone know how to fix my other problem?

That usually happens when I have some other desktop enhancement app running that does the same thing.

You have anything else like that running?

ObjectDock
ObjectBar
DesktopX

If you ever ran any, check them. Expecially OBar, there was a post earlier about OBar and ODock wrestling each other in a game of 'hide the taskbar'.

I found the problem. I have Norton Internet Security, and there is a bar that shows the Norton Protection Status. If I disable the Norton bar, the windows taskbar will close if I close the dock or if I uncheck Hide the Windows Taskbar.
