Minor Thing... Seeing balloon tips above Task Bar?

[PhotoOpp]

I just installed Win XP SP2 on a computer and have run into a minor annoyance.

I have set the Taskbar to 'Auto-Hide' and 'Keep Taskbar on Top' but I did not 'Lock the Taskbar'.

The annoyance is that when I hover the mouse over the icons, near the clock, the balloon tips (is that what they are called?) are hidden behind the Taskbar! How do I fix this?

See if these lead anywhere.
