My friend sent me this screenshot of her desktop asking me if I knew how to get rid of the grey box on the side. With the folder tasks options and shit.
Apparently I cant figure it out? Even though I know its something easy. If I was there I probably could.
Anyone know how to get it off the desktop?

First person to find a working solution gets 3 or maybe 5 eggpoints donated to the group of there choice. The 3-5 points depends on how quickly it is found. This is a huge amount of points so hurry.

I cant understand Hardforums, I just checked it out. It has the most confusing layout Ive ever seen. I cant even find a way to make new topics, or the proper area to do it in.
