Disable Taskbar

Hi,

I have a VB.NET application that runs on Embedded XP, the user can logon
with password for different levels of right within the application. My boss
wants the XP taskbar being hiden or locked when the user logon at the lowest
level (by default), when the user logon as an administrator, he/she can see
the taskbar, and disabled when logged off. Therefore, I need to be able to
dynamicly enable/disable the taskbar without registry change or reboot. And
I cannot install third party tweaks to do so, because of the size of flash
card that holds Embedded XP. Is there dll or function within VB.NET that I
can manipulate to do this?
Thanks!!!
