Fewer system tray icons?
m_s:
Does anyone know of (or could anyone code) a small program that would reduce the number of icons in my system tray - I have seen a pay-for one (can't remember title), but wonder if there is a free one. I know Windows does this natively, but I would love to be able to just select which icons would always be hidden, and show them again with a mouseclick. Anybody know?
Carol Haynes:
I haven't tried it but this looks promising and it is free http://www.freevbcode.com/ShowCode.asp?ID=3334
There are a whole load of other options here:

Well, I was searching Google and http://fileforum.betanews.com/ for something like that, but only found buggy programs :( If you should find something, please tell us/me!

Thanks, Carol - you're a star, as ever!
Carol Haynes:
You're welcome. Another possibility is http://www.mlin.net/TraySaver.shtml
This has stopped development now but the code has been opened up for people to modify. I'm not up to the task but there are those amongst us who may be interested in carrying this project forward if you smile nicely :D
