    Does anyone know how to make applications minimize into the system tray? For example, I would like outlook to minimize into the system tray and not the taskbar. I have found numerous shareware programs that will do this, but I would like to do it with installing any additional software. Maybe a change in the registry??

    Here's a freeware, if you don't want to install sharewares:
    http://download.com.com/3000-2094-8120277.html?tag=lst-3-7

    From the developer: "Minimizer is a freeware tiny application that allows minimization of top-level windows to the system icon tray area, either by pressing a hotkey combination or by using the 'Minimize' window command. You might find it useful on a crowded desktop, or when a console window pops up annoyingly or even to send to the system icon tray area lengthy background task top-level windows. "
