Windows 7 taskbar covers all windows

I recently noticed that the taskbar was blocking the bottom of all windows (IE, Outlook, etc) - making it difficult or impossible to access scroll bars, status(es) etc.

I looked around the web, and someone advised clearing the profile (losing all my stuff!) but someone else had a simple fix that worked:

Right click on taskbar, choose 'Properties'
Check "auto hide"
Uncheck "auto hide".


I also had to reboot to make this work...but work it did!
