How make apps full-screen?

QUESTION: Is it possible to make an application appear as a full
screen (no XP taskbar or system tray)?

-----

I know I can use F11 in Win Explorer and IE to show them in full
screen but I would like to select applications to be viewed in full
screen too.

What I want is similar to "Auto hide the taskbar" in the Taskbar's
properties menu. Is there some way to toggle this setting via a
hotkey?

Right click on the START button.. select 'Properties'.. click on the
'Taskbar' tab.. check 'autohide the taskbar'..

Job done..

Mike, I didn't want to keep settings the taskbar auto-hide.

What I want is similar to "Auto hide the taskbar" in the Taskbar's
properties menu if only there were some way to toggle this setting
via a hotkey.

Do you know of a utility which will do this?
