I am in agreement with the vote that says that if the starter isn't serving an
interactive purpose then there is no reason to have it registered in the system
tray or otherwise. It can run as a TSR or a DLL service without being displayed
on the system tray.
Windows services run in the background all all the time. Have you seen all the
"processes" running under windows XP? Dozens! That means they must have
developed some simple code to insert into the component somewhere... Hmm.

But then how can you unload the application if you haven't any icon
available?
So I assume that you just want to hide it temporarily and have some
means to show it again when you need ist. Then you should use a clever
desktop that does that for you (like the Win XP desktop), because that's
the place where such things should be handled. There's no point in
implementing this for a single application.
