Hey, is there any way at all to tweak the registry, or anything i can do to make MSN Messenger only show up in the system tray as opposed to staying in the taskbar when open??
Thanks

I was under the impression that MSN defaulted to this. Do you mean that when you close the main MSN window that the only sign of MSN running is the icon in the system tray?

@bulio - I do already have msn plus, but that is not one of the options as far as i know
@4th - what msn defaults to is to stay in the system tray when the window is closed, yet when the window is opened it is displayed in both system tray and taskbar, what i want is for it to be just displayed in the system tray at all times

simple answer no

it runs in the bg, as long as you have run in background selected, and click x it just goes to system tray

hell you need it open at some stage to sign in ect , or to slect a freind to chat to

no I have dual monitors, and I keep MSN open in the second monitor, but it stays in the taskbar on the first, just wanted that outta the way, but I guess it can&#39;t be done....
