I use a web page to stream music to my PC (RadioIO) I usually play

this all day and I was wondering if there was a way of putting this

page in the Sys tray at the bottom of the right hand corner?

 

Thanks

Open windows Explorer and locate this path:

C:\Documents and Settings\UserName\Start Menu\Programs\StartUp = Copy the

shortcut Here and it will start and show on the Notification Area.

If you mean to put a shortcut to the webpage in the sys tray, how about:

 

With the web page opened in your browser, click on the icon in the address

bar, drag it to your desktop.

Click on that shortcut, drag it into the sys tray.

Voila

Oops, I was putting it in the Quicklaunch area. But really, what's the

difference?

What's the difference between the Quick Launch tool Bar and the System

Tray?

 

They are completely different things. The Quick launch Toolbar

contains shortcuts, which can be used to start programs. Other than

their location, these shortcuts are no different from shortcuts on

your desktop.

 

The System Tray (its official name is "Notification Area") contains

icons that represent programs that are already *running*, usually in

the background.

Well put.

 

Perhaps I misunderstood JoHNY's intent - to get a quick launching capability

for the webpage, or to get the running app off the normal running apps

button area and made smaller, more unobtrusive in the notification area.

 

There's an app out there called BeTrayed that might suffice. Have not tried

it, so can't comment on its actual functionality.
