mucking about covers a lot of ground... can't tell you what happened unless we know what you did.

have put them back on via the all programme feature.

never heard of that... what you mean?

1. there is a small area of grey, where the taskbar was about the size of a small coin.2. was working on object dock, when the grey area appeared out of nowhere. 3.have put the icons that were on the o.d. taskbar back on desktop via the all programmes feature.

Here are the instructions from the FAQ

(for XP)
Go to start > run and then copy this into the command line:

%userprofile%\local settings\application data\stardock

(for Vista)
Just copy/paste into cmd or the Vista start menu search bar.

%localappdata%\Stardock

It will open a file folder. Delete the ObjectDock one. Be sure to save your theme before doing all of this.

Outside docklets (even more so after a updates) can cause problems. Just kick them off the dock (after saving your settings of course) one by one and find the culprit. Then let us know who was the evil docklet.
