I want to get rid of these idiot boxes I call them that pop up from my task bar telling me that my applications have been minimized as soon as I do it and how to restore them, etc. I did a Google search on it and it looks like I have to go in and edit the registry. I really hate to mess with that. Anyone know another way?
