Task Manager "problem"

How do I begin explaining the "problem"....

My task manager (xp) seems to have lost it's....toolbars and tabbies. All that comes up is the different processes and it has the "End Process" button, but that's basically all that's on there. I can't switch back in to see what programs are running b/c I don't have the tabs at the top to do so.

How do I get my tabs back?

Hah, that was so simple. I swear, I right clicked and did all kinds of different things....never the double-click, however.

THANKS!

rofl. I had that same problem once... I was like WTF!! Then started clicking madly around it and it came back. I was like, "FWAAAAAAAAAAA!" Then I must've double clicked it again because it went away, which REALLY pissed me off.

Figured it out about 2 minutes later after screaming and jumping around.
