upgraded to build 7068 last night, and this morning i installed one of my favorite screensavers, Fliqlo.

anyway, i've just noticed that resuming out of the screensaver, the taskbar is GONE. right-clicking on the area where it should be brings up the same context menu you'd get by right-clicking on the desktop.

windows still think it's there, leaving the normal space for it when maximised.
the start button is still there too, and it works properly.

so far, the only way i've found to get it back is by restarting.
anyway, i'd appreciate it if some other Win7 users could test out this screensaver and see if it causes the problem on their machines.

no, it only happens with the screensaver i specified - thats why i mentioned it.

the screensaver is flash-based. could that be causing it?

*updates flash*

<edit>
okay, it seems like the update broke flash - i've reinstalled it, so hopefully the problem will be gone.

no, the problem still persists :(

can someone else try the Fliqlo screensaver (link in OP) and see if it causes the same symptoms?
 
does that clock just sit there doing nothing?

surely that's worse than having no screensaver at all?!

or does it move around?
 
It stays stationary, only changing like that style of clock does.

Whys it worse, I presume your on about burning an image into the screen?
 
hello, was running build 7000 and now 7100 and have the same issue! hoped the problem would not appear with 7100 :(
