Thanks for the suggestions, everyone.
DrewDad, I cannot fool around with my office computer/settings - don't have 'admin' rights to do anything. Very strict and limited access.
Region Philbis - I guess 'collapsing' isn't the same as 'minimizing' - coz even when I reduce the window size - sexy lady stays right there, mocking me with her hard bod!
Dagmaraka - you're missing something (or not!).
Maybe I'll just have to buy a little convex mirror to position on my monitor...
