See the 6/15 thread that contains Task manager in the Subject.
Had you looked there first you would have had your solution without posting.

People who read - learn, usually.

Anyway I will post my answer from yesterday again because it takes so much
time to go back over about 20 posts.

For Task Manager, double click in the white space just below the top
boarder.

Didn't know Task Manager had paying guests :-)

A minor correction: it doesn't have to be "just below the top border."
Anyplace on the border will work.

This is what's called "Small Footprint Mode." To change back and forth
from this mode to regular mode, just double-click anyplace on the
border.

Tonya,

Not looking to start a ****ing contest but...
Yes you certainly are free to come here to ask or say whatever you want.
No question about that part.
Likewise I'm free to try to teach you how to fish - I don't have to just
give you one.
My response to you did not just have the date.
This was my opening comment "See the 6/15 thread that contains Task manager
in the Subject".
It included your Task Manger Subject as a connecting reference (yes I forgot
to capitalize the em in manager).
In my view of this NG 's headers that 6/15 thread appeared a mere half a
dozen lines or so below yours.
Easily in view.
It struck me that pointing this out might help you realize that when
something is there staring you in the face on the very Subject you are
questioning that it might worth a look.
No there is no rule that says you have to search (due diligence) before you
ask.
Likewise there is no rule that prevents clues as answers.
Ironically, your frustrated clicking was the very answer.
It seems you could have saved that much more of the time you didn't have
(which you took to post) by trying that at the outset.
BTW, FWIW, typing Task Manager into the Search Help block of Start/Help and
Support (or Windows F1) would have also provided your answer even faster -
two clicks.
Of course you would still have to read and understand what appeared but
maybe we'll not go there.

Sage advice. BTW, is there a better way to search for something like this,
other then reading the subject line of each post? When I last checked, there
were about 15,000 messages on this forum. I"m a patient man, but...

I am not the best searcher but...
I just right clicked on my NG Folder in Windows Mail (Outlook Express in XP)
and did a Find for Task Manager in Subject and found 23.
Then I did a Find in Message and found 35.
Of course any number of them would have been from this thread.
I don't have all 15,000 headers/messages d/led - just those that accumulate
through ordinary access.
You, of course, could probably do some sort of Google search on the entire
NG.
Don't know if that helps but it's what occurs to me now.

If I independently had Task Manager (or other issues) I would pursue it/them
various ways depending upon my pain threshold.
I keep a Search Gadget up on my Sidebar so I might just toss something into
there to see what comes out.
I might go to Help...
If I had NG's up and the issue fell into something I "subscribe" to I might
scan the headers of do the search above - maybe maybe not.
More often than not I'd probably - first thing - say what did I do
(differently/recently etc...) that makes it an issue now when it wasn't
before and go from there.
Geo.

The best way to search newsgroups is by using Googlegroups advanced
search. http://groups.google.com/advanced_search?q=&
