Windows XP Taskbar

08:16 PMIf anyone else has windows XP, how do you keep the taskbar hidden when you get an message via AOL IM?

In windows 98, I remember the taskbar staying hidden but now with windows XP, it just pops up and blinks the IM task until I click on it then the taskbar will hide again.

Any ideas how to get it to stay hidden even when someone sends an IM message?

Thanks reg

09:34 AMIt's in the AIM settings. Not sure exactly but look around and you should find it. reg

Must be a bug in AOL IM for Windows XP because it doesn't work. That is how I had it set.

Thanks for the help.
