Try this:
Right-click on the task bar. Select 'Task Manager' and then the 'Processes' tab. Click on explorer.exe. Click 'End Process' and then 'Yes'. (Your task bar will disappear. Don't worry!). Click the 'Applications' tab and then on 'New Task'. Type 'explorer.exe' and click 'OK'.

It seems to be a fault with Microsoft Explorer, Bernie. Simply stopping it and restarting it seems to fix the problem.
