Default Minimizing to Tray
Is there a program or a way (without using an Admin account) to minimize any/all your programs onto the system tray bar? I keep getting caught playing games at school.

Thanks in Advance

you can unlock it and drag it down, or set it to auto hide. It also helps if you open a word doc, and just alt-tab into it when a teacher comes. hope this helps, lol

actually if you do "Windoys Key + D" it goes to the desktop, and that doesnt really seem you are doing something, so its a lot better to alt-tab into word, trust me, I tested

Everyone uses the auto-hide trick, so the teacher knows it already. Even I do it, I just get told to move my mouse to the very bottom. and the Windows + D also gets you caught because the teachers at my school simply tell you to click on the things on your start menu (or w/e you call the bar) or log off....

All that can be done is to drag the start bar down so they cant see what you are doing lol.
