Unhappy no task buttons on taskbar

Running Win XP Pro 2002 with SP 1 on Dell 4550 2 Ghz 512 ram.
Hardware firewall/router, Symantec antivirus.

I installed a diabetes management program from LifeScan. It messed up taskbar. Uninstall didn't fix it. No error messages.

Quicklaunch bar has a left edge marker but no right edge marker with taskbar unlocked. All the quicklaunch icons are strung out across the taskbar. There are no running tasks buttons visible. Alt-tab will switch between tasks. Language bar is visible with a left boundary marker.

This is true only for the account I was using when I installed the program. Other accounts have no problem with the taskbar.

I also can't get Tweak UI to work, so I can't use it to look at the problem.

Although I could move everything to a new account, it is a royal pain to do so. I'm hoping someone has an answer for how to fix this without reinstalling XP or some equally drastic method.

Any suggestions? Please.
