    Systray

    Does anyone know how to get rid of an icon in my system tray in W2k
    I tried the registray but I couldn't figure it out and the program doesn't come with a setting that let you do that

    It is probably in the run folder in the registry...

    Start > Run...

    msconfig (press enter)

    In the window that comes up, click on the Startup List tab, and uncheck the program that you don't want running.

    Which program is it, btw?

    I don't think Win2K has msconfig...don't know much about Win2K, but at least that is not working in the norwegian version....But it works in Win Me and older stuff...

    Then Win2K will have its own version of msconfig... perhaps winconfig?

    If not, then he can download regcleaner, and use it's startup list feature to remove the prog.

    It also mentions that msconfig can be made to work with Windows 2000.

    You can download "msconfig.exe" and use it on 2K.
