LOL! I literally downloaded the dock, and now I can't right click, and no matter what I do, it won't shut off... I uninstalled, and rebooted it several times, and it's still there. I even opened docky in the same place, and the Cairo Dock still remains... Very irritating... So, I have three options...

1. Download a new lightweight Linux Distro (maybe something based on Debian or Unity)
2. Leave it alone despite it being useless and in the way
3. Find some weird way to uninstall it

All help is appreciated :)

No need to install a new distro over something so trivial. ;) What I would do is open a terminal and type in kill cairo-dock to kill the process and then afterwards cairo-dock</> to launch the dock again. Watch the terminal for any errors and if anything happens, paste it in a reply. Also, you should uninstall docky because having 2 docks open can mess things up.
