Yip you are right.  After a little googling to find out what you were 
talking about I solved the issue.  I had also added a Graphics card to 
my system around the time this issue came up and hence installed the 
nvidia driver.  To fix I installed 'compizconfig-settings-manager' which 
isn't installed by default on my system.  Go to System > Preferences > 
Compiz Settings Manager then under Workarounds I enabled 'Legacy 
Fullscreen Support' which seems to have taken the taskbar issue away.

JYA is there any other useful settings I should check?
