hi, this message is for windows 7 users. in Skype 4.2 Skype will not close to the system tray. it is always in the alt tab order. now you can solve this problem. open the Skype program folder usually C:\Program Files\Skype\Phone now you will see a file here called Skype. this is the main executable for the Skype program. press alt+enter. select this file and press alt+enter. this will open the properties dialog box. press control tab once this will take you to the Compatibility (Tab Control) now check the box that says Run this program in compatibility mode for: now press tab to a list box that will give you options for the version of windows you want select. Windows Vista now press enter. now the next time you start Skype it will go to the system tray like a good little boy and when you close it after you open it it will go back to the system tray not be in the alt+tab order, and you will be a happy camper. hth p.s thanks to Jeff for pointing this out with windows live messenger it works for Skype to.
