I know, this thread is a liiiiiittle bit old, but since I had the pleasure to work with LabVIEW 7 again and stumbled upon the same misbehaviour, I thought it might be good idea to present my solution to this problem (as it is the only thread concerning this problem):
I managed not to basically "crash" the taskbar by maximizing the front panel during the execution by opening a reference to the vi and modifying the property node "front panel window" -> "state" to "maximized".
It does not answer the question why exactly this taskbar lock is caused, but at least it's a workaround.

I have seen similar weird behaviour caused by the video driver in the past. And recently on my Windows 7 system, but not limited to LabVIEW only, although it is the most used application here. The recent failure basically made itself apparent in that mouse clicks didn't seem to register anymore in different windows. It usually started in VirtualBox after the computer had been left unattended for some time, then affected Firefox and also LabVIEW. Sometimes Ctrl-Alt-Del and going back to Windows afterwards cleared it up momentarily but it always returned.
Various google searchs and trials further, I came across a report that this could be caused by NVidia drivers so I updated my video driver and haven't seen such an issue since.
