-outlook hider- remove outlook from your taskbar.
click image for larger view.	this is a little tool i wrote long ago for use at work. i just now decided to post it to share with others (09/19/02). my co-workers and i have used it for over a year now. while at work, i (along with just about everyone i know) leave outlook open all day while at work. the problem with outlook is that it is always in the taskbar taking up space. i would rather not see it so i made this simple tool that will hide outlook. the tool runs down in the system tray and when double clicked, will hide outlook. it will appear to minimize to the system tray. double clicking again will bring outlook back. very simple but it allows you to keep outlook open without having to see it in your taskbar. the install will add it to your start up group so it will always be available when you boot up. nothing really fancy but i still love it.

in regards to the post about microsoft wanting to buy it, outlook 2003 has settings to allow you to do this now. it's a pain to find though, so you're probably still better off with this.

this is the greatest add-in for outlook ever, you should see if ms will buy it. i always hated having the space wasted by outlook. i knew it was running but it was on both the start bar and the task bar why? well that is a problem no more. thanks, this is great!!
