There are also some features that run outside of Kicker, the extensions. They are added from the submenu Configure Panel of the K Menu or the context menu by choosing Add and then Extensions. You can move them to any screenborder by dragging them at the small handles on their left or top side and remove it by right clicking on that handle and choose Remove.
The external taskbar is just the same as the taskbar applet with the only difference that it provides its own panel. Refer to the taskbar applet section for help about it.
