Some applications are single click out of the tray, and other applications are double. It varies from program to program. Some programs don't even minimize to the system tray; rather they minimize to the taskbar only. Select programs that dont minimize to the tray be default, such as Mozilla's Thunderbird, have add-on's available which introduce the system tray minimization functionality. Ciao, Colin. Hi Skeleto,
