System Tray and AppActivate

I have a program running in the system tray only. I need to check that program, see if it is running, I have tried AppActive() but it does not see the programm running in the system tray, is there a solution to this problem?

Note: This is a top priority for me, I would appreciate an answer as quickly as is humanly possible

Thanks,

Does it have a window with a certain classname or caption you could use to track it with findwindow?
