Every time I install a new version of Windows XP, the stupid language bar shows up on the Task Bar. Right click to turn it off doesn't work; it pops back up again after a reboot.

However, this is the way to turn it off for good. It's as easy as 1-2-3-4-5-6!

  1. Click Control Panel in the Start menu.
  2. Double-click Regional and Language Options.
  3. Click the Languages tab.
  4. Click the Details button.
  5. Click the Language Bar button.
  6. Uncheck the checkbox for Show the Language bar on the desktop.
OK your way back out of nested dialog hell, and you're done!
