My IE icon appears on my desktop. I moved the icon to my taskbar and it
opens twice. It only opens once if I use the desktop icon. I deleted the
desktop icon to see if that made a difference but it didn't. Also, my
gadgets have been repositioned high on the right side and overlay close,
expand and minimize options. I can move them in position but they remain too
high. I don't know how why this happened or how to reposition them down.

Could it be that IE opens twice from the taskbar because you are clicking on
it twice (double clicking)? Taskbar items need only one click. Desktop items
need two.

As for the Gadget bar... it can only be customized to be on the left or the
right. It is always aligned nearest to the top of the display.

Yes, I was double clicking. Jeesh! I'm so stupid. Thanks!

You're not stupid. You learned something. Anyway, It was considerate of
you to post back and let him know that his suggestions solved your problems.
I'm lazy and don't use double clicks to open anything. I prefer single
clicks.
