Man that thing gets annoying. They should really ask you if you want to enable it in MS Office setup, not just enable it by default. I guess I'm just a nazi about desktop space though, I always have a bunch of windows open and I can't afford the used taskbar space. I should really use 1600x1200 instead of the measly 1280x1024 I use now on my 21" monitor, though. I just don't think enough people use it to have it enabled by default.
