I use the 'auto-hide' feature af the taskbar.

I have dial-up.

The taskbar pops-up and stays up for a short time everytime I connect to the internet,
meanwhile I have to wait until it goes away before I can continue.

Would someone tell me how to stop the taskbar from poping-up on every internet connection ?


I do not want to get rid of auto-hide.

I am comfortable and savvy with hacking the registry, there has got to be a registry fix for this.

Would someone share it with me ?

Thanks,
kevin

Have you tried to disable the connection notification (dialup) ?

I agree; computing.net does need an edit button.
