Hi Jenny; Try the following. From: "Dana S. Leslie" < dsles...@alumni.princeton.edu> If you are using Windows Xp, here is what you do: Press the Windows Key then press escape to be in an empty Taskbar, press the applications key / right click to open the context menu, arrow to properties, and press enter. This will take you to the Taskbar properties dialogue. The " Notification Area Hide inactive icons" checkbox must be checked for the next step to work. Press alt + C, for " Notification Area Customize..., " this opens a list of all the icons that can appear in the system tray. Scroll down the list till you find the one you're interested in. Press right arrow, and you will be in a drop down that offers three choices: Hide when Inactive, Never Show, and Always show. Select Always Show, and left arrow. Press Enter twice, to save your changes, and exit.
HOWEVER, I have found that, even though you set a particular icon to Always Show, some icons have a nasty habit of reverting to Hide When Inactive (the default), for no reason I have been able to ascertain. If this is the case with the icon you are concerned with, you will simply have to continually reset it. I don't know of any way around this apparent. bug.

I tried to control tab to another page but it looks like there isn't one. Any other ideas?
