I don't know what him being Chinese has anything to do with it, but anyways, linky no worky.

Most likely it's way off screen. Right click the program in the taskbar, select move.

Now use the arrow keys to move the window until it's on screen.
 
Yea, what's so bad about asians? hehe, j/k.

Anyway, im also not sure what your asking, because the link does not work for me eaither.

ANYWAY. some programs do not display in the "task bar" or the "system tray".

The task bar is where all your windows, such as Internet Explorer, a word document, show up at the bottom middle of the screen. the system tray is usually at the bottom right side of the screen, where you will have very small icons, and a clock usually.

Now, like i was saying, some programs have "settings" where you can choose where the program is displayed. Also, some programs just DON'T display in the taskbar, or the sytem tray... its how they were made. (i am reminded of the Visual Basic form property, "ShowInTaskbar = true/false", LOL.

If you can be more specific, then i can be more specific.

~Sorry this was'nt that helpful.
 
sorry guys for the link mistake. :(

this link should work. http://f1.pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/mere_watan_1947/detail?.dir=/Yahoo!+Photo+Album&.dnm=715e.jpg and if it doesn't work. go to http://photos.yahoo.com/mere_watan_1947 and u'll find the pic there. as u see at the task bar. i do not see Internet Explorer or any other program. :( i tried resizing the task bar. and its the off the moniter. i do not know wat to do. everysingle program does this. i also took out the language bar off but still it wouldn't show the tasks.

thanks.

Ok, i see what you are talking about.

The only "guess" i can say is that your "language bar" is blocking the main taskbar.

This is what i would do.

Right click the "task bar", in the grey space, and a pop up should come up. Go up to "toolbars", and un-check (no check mark) everything execpt the quick start toolbar.


If this does not help, i don't know what else to do.

~Sorry

p.s., i looked at the website, you also might want to try #117
