I am using a free version of Hamachi program, I need it to connect to someone's computer through TightVNC.
However Hamachi doesn't hide it self from the try icon. I tried msconfig to stop on boot up but it still shows up. (because it needs to connect)
I already hidden the attributes from the directory but just the tray icon is left to take care of. I tried looking the registry but no luck.

The tray icon gives the user to disable and powerOff Hamachi itself.

I was reading other forums, and someone said they wrote a script to just run the .exe without showing the GUI/tray icon.
Or is there a program that takes care of it for me?

Thanks!

Run the exe with the help switch to see what options you have. Or check their website for the required switch.

Actually this is a very common issue and most likely not a bot posting considering the user has been around a while and posting.
If they're already installing software on someone's computer and all that, they already have the access they want to that person's computer. :)

Hi :) 

Can you see any legitimate reason for hiding the icon so the user does not know that program is running....

I await the OPs answer to that point with interest.....

Actually in a corporate environment there are various legitame reasons for hiding system tray icons, especially if the icon allows user interactions that are unwanted by the system admins.
