Hello,

Sometimes i start up FAH manually, as it can sometimes affect my system performance.

I dont like having things minimize to the task bar and sitting there - is it possible to have the FAH client minimize to the system tray (beside the clock)

Having 4 FAH in the task bar can get annoying for me.

Is it the console or the gui version? I think the gui goes to the sys tray, but I dont know how to make the console do it.

Tray it is very nice. I used it for a long time before I started using the Wedo one clicks:D

The Wedo's are fine and all - but often i find myself stopping my FAH services ebcause they are slowing down my system in general - so for the few times a day i may need to turn off FAH - it is nice to just use my quick launch, one click and they start again - then i just mionimize them out iof my way - instead of going into service.mcs and restarting them that way :D

I've been using TrayIt! for at least 2 or 3 years and it's a great little program. You can also use it to put other icons into the system tray too, like WMP when it's minimized. :cool:

I rather use TrayIt! with a manual startup than running my clients as a service because it's easier to shut the client down and restart it, instead of having to go to services to do it.

i just use the ms-dos batch files to stop and start my one-click. handy when i need it.
