Quick Launch Toolbar in wrong place

Using Windows 98SE, I temporarily closed the Quick Launch Toolbar by right
clicking the taskbar, selecting Toolbars and unchecking Quick Launch
Toolbar.

After I re-enabled the Quick Launch Toolbar, it isn't located where it
previously was. Initially, it was just to the right of the Start button
(which is at the lower left corner of the screen). After closing and then
reopening the Quick Launch Toolbar, it opened at the right of the taskbar,
just left of the task tray. If I drag the Quick Launch Toolbar to the left,
it stops an inch or so before the Start button and won't go any further.
There is a space in the taskbar between the Start button and the Quick
Launch Toolbar.

When I have programs open, the taskbar icons for the open programs are now
to the LEFT of the Quick Launch Toolbar, not to the right as they have
always been. The program icons are in the space between the Start button
and the Quick Launch Toolbar.

How do I move the Quick Launch Toolbar back to its original position just to
the right of the Start button? I should note that I have the taskbar set to
one row high, I have no other Toolbars selected and have not created any
custom toolbars.

I have tried everything I can think of to fix this. I've looked on the MS
KB and found nothing.

Can someone help me, please?

Thank you.
