I know it might seem silly, but try the sides too. It could be hidden on either side.

Might check to see that she didn't change the screen resolution to something higher than the monitor supports. If you do that, the screen becomes "virtual" and you would have to move the mouse down or to the right to see the additional deskspace.

if you look at Activity Monitor, and view all users' processes, is the Dock even listed?
