Screen saver bar

Hello,
Just a query before I call in some one I have to pay.
After I interupt the screen saver I get a bar at the
bottom of my screen. As if I had a window open.
Thanks

If your talking about ghost buttons:
This is a response from Rick Rogers aka "Nutcase" MS-MVP, now North of the border in
XP land:
These "ghost" buttons are often cured by updating the video drivers. They began
appearing around the release of IE5.0. Changing screensavers can often help as well.

Other possibilities include:
1) The Win98SE Mapped drives Shutdown update
2) The Win98SE 1394 Storage Supplement

If you have installed any of these updates and don't actually need them, you can try
uninstalling them through the .inf's they placed on your system. They would be:
1) 260067un.inf
2) 242975un.inf

Also, another method to try is to delete this key from the registry and reboot:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curre ntVersion\Explorer\StuckRects

NOTE Please use caution when working within the registry. Changes made here are
generally immediate. Making the wrong change or carelessly changing/deleting keys can
render your system unbootable. If you are unsure about any change, don't do it.
Before you make any changes to the registry, know how to backup and restore the
current one from a command prompt.

And in addition, a response by (glee) Glen Ventura MS-MVP:
Some programs are just poorly-written, and a fault in the code will cause this to
occur.
