99.99% of every vertical scrollbar in the world? Not so fast.... Hebrew
localized & Arabic localized windows have almost ALL their scroll bars on

I do not have a localized system handy (I prefer a English UI for my
windows) but I do have an old screen shot:

Notice where the start button is, and where the system tray is...
