Taskbar and closed program annoyance

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.customize (More info?)

Hi Dave,
I have my task bar set to "Autohide" and when closing a maximized program it
automatically goes to the next open program. You can set this by right
clicking on the task bar and choosing properties. Then click on the
"Autohide" button making sure there's a checkmark in the block. Then click
on "Apply" and close the window. From that point on out you should be ok.

Take Care...
