Object Dock pops up during gaming

from Stardock Forums

My object dock is positioned at the bottom of my screen and it's set to auto-hide. The problem is that when I'm in any game and I move my cursor to the bottom of the screen or look down (in a first person view) the object dock pops up and overlays on top of the game. This usually results on me clicking an icon and opening some random program. This behavior exists in every full screen game that I've tried and it's infuriating.

I've tried adjusting the games graphical settings to "Fullscreen", "Windowed", "Windowed Fullscreen". Doesn't matter the setting the problem exists in all configurations.

My gaming PC is W7 OS.

I've also tried repositioning the dock to the left and top of the screen. Same behavior in-game. It'll just pop up on top of the game in those locations instead.

Hi. In order to uncheck that option auto-hide would have to be turned off. While auto-hide is selected the box is forcibly checked and cannot be deselected.
