Is there any way to make a program that doesn't run in the systray run in the systray. For instance I like to have Outlook run all the time but I would rather have it in the tray than on the taskbar to free up some space for other ****, is there a way to make this happen? Programs like winamp have this option built in which is nice I think that Outlook should too.

I'm positive I have seen at least one program for this, can't remember the name though. If you have a scour round http://www.winfiles.com there is bound to be something there.

I have heard of a third party program that does this, but I don't think it is built into Windows itself.
Sorry, I don't remember where I heard this, but it's out there.
