The bar at the bottom of the screen (the one with the windows, the start option, etc.) has been made vertical and is up against the left side of my screen. There is only a left right arrow for making it bigger sideways, and there is not one for verticalness. I want it to be back at the bottom of the screen like usual.
Any help would be hugely appreciated. (link)

That bar is called the Taskbar. I assume that you're using Windows XP, by the way, although the Taskbar is also present in other versions of Windows.
To move the taskbar, left-click on a blank part of it and drag it to where you want it to be, holding the mouse button down until it moves. It might not move until the cursor actually gets to a different border area; then it will snap into place.
To resize the taskbar, move the cursor to the edge of the bar until it (the cursor) turns into a vertical or horizontal black double-headed arrow, then click and drag.
Here's how to avoid having it move or resize unexpectedly in the future: right-click on a blank area of the taskbar. A drop-down menu will appear. Click on "Lock the Taskbar". A checkmark will appear next to that option, and you won't be able to move or change the taskbar until you right-click and uncheck that option.
