alright..i got a question on xp......i know that you can drag folders to the top of the screen to make them toolbars............then you can make the toolbars auto hide so they dont take up space.........ummmwhere am i going with this..........?.....

oh yeah...is there a way to make programs like AIM,...which i always have at the side of the screen, auto hide with xp? or do i have to get a program that does can make a window auto hide like the toolbars or makes it transparent ?

If this thread makes sense to anyone any help would be......well helpfull :D


*edit*
(tried the transparent thing..didnt like it too much..but might go back to it if i cant finf anything else....):D

never make your way into the registry section though. One mistake and get ready to format the drives... and reinstall your shit.

software into a brand new out-of-box software! :D :D
