I too get a normal task manager with Ctrl Shft Esc I think, the task manager window you're talking about is the one which is displayed when you double click on empty tab area or on side walls of the task manager window @Bill ..

Ctrl Shift Esc gives me a Task Manager window with NO tabs and NO menu bar. This window remains on top of the other windows. I can resize it smaller to make it unobtrusive, but I've found no way to close it without rebooting. (Maybe use Martin's restart Explorer tip, but I don't want to close all my open windows now.)
