How many times you have thought for an application that will hide the ugly looking XP taskbar and your rocketdock dock will be the only thing that will rule your desktop in style.
The wait is over guys...!!!
Here is a small app that will hide your taskbar. This is NOT a trick like automatically hide taskbar or something so that the taskbar will return on mouse hover. It is a permanent method.
If you want to have your taskber back.. you need to run Show Taskbar utility and it will restore your taskbar as it was.
Please add this app in your system startup so that it will be eecuted automatically as soon as the system starts. It just hides your taskbar for the session and exits the app, so doesn't waste any memory as well.
Hope you guys will enjoy this app.
Please don't forget to rate it or comment it....
Thanks,

I am a .NET application developer who loves to write small utilities.
I am a hardcore GEEK ! I love to spend time surfing internet when I am not coding. lol
Just add the Hide Taskbar exe in your dock and click on it when you want to hide it....
else add it to the startup (Start > All Programs > Startup > right click > open). paste the exe there or create a shortcut there pointing to this exe.
you are done !!
i need help please explain how to do it! :(
Hi, I uploaded a method for toggling the taskbar just a bit before your upload. I've been using the Aviassin TaskbarEliminator for ages (it used to be the KaneBT taskbar hider). Like yours, it kills it very reliably. Some others fail routinely ie the thing just reappears when you do certain processes.
I used to just kill my taskbar until Windows 7, but now I'm finding the Win7 taskbar is just great as a running apps bar. I don't pin anything to it, so don't use it as a launcher. I use my Dock for that, so, likewise, I don't show running apps on the dock, just launchers using shortcuts and Stacks. I find it works very well. No jumble of launcher and running apps on either the dock or the taskbar. So I don't want the taskbar there all the time, but when I do, I want it there quickly and easily. Taskbar autohide is annoying, so I figured it would be good to be able to have a hot corner that would popup the taskbar, and then kill it when I want to.
Hence my technique.
But it's quite complicated for what is, really, quite a simple piece of functionality.
I'm not a coder except for quite simple stuff like a bit of vbs.
I wonder if you could adapt your technique to do in one tool what I've got in my rather complicated method.
The challenge is showing and hiding the Start orb. I notice that, in Win7 at least, your hider doesn't hide the Start orb unless autohide is turned on first. Same with the Aviassin Eliminator. So to have the taskbar either there (with autohide off), or not there at all, you have to turn autohide on when you kill the taskbar, then turn it off when you reactivate the taskbar.
finally got ride of that thing
Works Perfectly
thanks!!
when you rate it low, please feel free to pass a comment/suggestion.
This will help me making the application better.
Thanks,
