Emacs 22.1 on Windows XP

Hi,

At work, I use Emacs 22.1 on a Windows XP system [1].  I have a vertical
panel.

When I maximise emacs (using the button in the top-right), it doesn't
behave like a maximised window, instead it behaves as if the window has
been resized to fill the screen (somewhat)

Some of the behaviour witnessed:
 * It is possible to move the window around like a normal window.  Other
windows can act like this, but have a little resistance to moving them.
Emacs doesn't.
 * Sometimes, it seems the window misjudges the size of the desktop and
position of the toolbar.  This normally results in the window having a
small gap at the bottom of the screen, showing the background and some
of the window getting hidden behind the panel
 * When minimising and returning (or switching virtual desktop [2]), the
emacs window resizes itself to pretty random sizes.

Hope (any of) this is useful.  If you need any further info, please let
me know and I'll try and help.

Thanks
Don

[1] It's for a good cause, honest.
[2] Using either Virtual Dimension
(http://virt-dimension.sourceforge.net/) or the microsoft virtual
desktop thing that's part of their PowerToys.  Hey, if I'm stuck using
Windows, I've got to have some UNIX comforts ;)
