I am using Win XP SP2.

Unfortunately this new taskbar is added to the Right Monitor by default (i.e., my main monitor that already has the XP Taskbar). I need a taskbar added to my left monitor, i.e., to my second monitor.

I opened the MultiMonitor taskBar Properties. By default the taskbar is added to the Right Monitor, however there is the option to “Add Taskbar also to Left Monitor”, but unfortunately this option is greyed out, i.e. not selectable.

Can anyone help me?

It's great. Only problem is, one day the arrows in the titlebar disappeared. I think it has to do with something I've got installed. (I can log in as Admin, and they're there. But not if I log in as me.) Any one know what pgm could be interfering with this feature? I’ve been using Multimon taskbar for a year or two. It’s great.

Options like hotkeys, wallpaper manager, screen resolution/refresh rate profiles make it extremely useful for people who tend to switch between single- and multi-monitor setups a lot (pretty much everyone with a laptop and an additional external monitor).
