I've attached two images that comprise the left and right halves of the strip at the bottom of my screen, making up the taskbar and the system notification area. In the left half image (which I think is the thumbnail on the right - click it to view a larger version) you will see the start button followed by 13 program icons. Programs 1, 2, 5, and 9 are currently running, denoted by the rectangles surrounding them. They are respectively Windows Explorer, Firefox, Word, and NoteTab. Windows Live Mail 2011, represented by icon 4, is also running. It does not have a rectangle, but it should have. Review the previous discussion of this topic.
In the right half image (left thumbnail) you will see 5 program icons on the left and a number of small icons on the right that represent running programs. The fifth program icon represents Window Live Mail 2011, and it is surrounded by a rectangle. It should not be there at all, and the WLM icon in the left half image should have had a rectangle.
