Ok, I want to hide the e-donkey icon in the taskbar so that people can't shut it down.

What program does this easily? I don't want what XP does, I more or less want the icon gone.

Ahhhh. That's the key, now.


You basically have to turn the program into a service. I've read an article dealing with that in the past, but I don't remember how it was done. The guy was talking about how viruii can use IE to bypass a firewall, and then elaborated how to get an IE daemon to run as a service.

So, since there's IRC trojans out there that antiviruii don't kill, a virus could use IE to bypass the firewall in and out.

You totally lost me. Should I search for turning a program into a service?
