In previous versions of windows, you could remove the scroll bar from kicking in when you had a large number of programs open. I am trying to make this happen in XP. I do not want to use the Grouping of Programs, but instead want the program icon in the task bar to keep shrinking and shrinking.

Right click the taskbar, go to properties uncheck
"group similar taskbar buttons"

This removes the grouping, but eventually if you 15 or so windows open, it will turn into a scroll bar at the right. I want to keep this scroll bar from coming on at all.
