Use mouse, move pointer to top edge of taskbar until it becomes a double
ended pointer. Hold down mouse button and drag the taskbar to whatever size
you want.

Try it again, s. It's tricky, but that's how it's done. Try closing any
Toolbars, first. Like the QuickLaunch bar, etc. (Right-click the Taskbar to
get to Toolbar menu.)
