Can you upload a screenshot of the rectangle. Please.

  The xfce4-panel is sort of similar to what you know from Windows as
  status bar. Do you have a bar at the bottom with some icons on it? At
  the top?
  You can do a right clock on it and click "Settings" (may be
  "preferences") and see how many panels you have. You probably want to
  keep panel 0. If you have a panel 1 (drop down list up top in the
  settings dialog), you can probably delete it.
