Systray icons are a doddle. I've emailed you off this list my version of
the Freenet.exe code rewritten in C. You'll see that most of the important
details are going to be shared between pretty much any project that uses a
systray icon.
I've also emailed you a simpler application which sits in the systray and,
when you double-click it, runs a command line defined in the registry. This
command line can simply be anything you like - launch an application, launch
a document, etc.
I agree that C is easier to read than assembly ... :)
