Look in group or local policy if there is an entry to prohibit such change.
Or if you are logged in as admin just register this

right click on the task bar and click properties. Uncheck Auto hide the taskbar, click apply.
no guys none of the above help, and ofcourse the auto hide was disabled, thats the first thing i looked for.
unlock the taskbar and move it to any other edge of the screen. see if the same thing happens.
also in taskbar properties check whether keep the taskbar on top of other windows is enabled.
windows does give strange problems at times. if nothing works, only reinstalling windows helps.
You can download "Taskbar repair tool" from:*www.kellys-korner-xp.com/taskbarplus!.htm
These are typical group policy errors.
Type gpedit.msc in Run... and goto
User Configuration -> Administrative Templates ->
-> Start Menu and Taskbar
-> Desktop
Make sure all entries in above two are set to not configured.
