I love this addon. However, I found a little bug while have this addon turned on. When I minimize the firefox to tray and try to restore other minimized program located on the left of firefox, it will also restore the program while firefox being restored.

Great plugin, but when installed there is problem with cyrillic language. Uptop in the blue line before the sign Mozilla Firefox, when open page in cyrillic, appears ???????? signs !

I love how you can hide the icon from the tray. This is my most used add-on. A must have for all those surfing at work. Better than minimize to tray. I also like the transparency option. Nearly perfect for me, good work.

I've been happy with the development of bosskey throughout 1.6.
With 1.7 and 1.8, I can no longer click on the Windows taskbar FF icon or use Windows hotkeys to cause Firefox to pop up in the virtual desktop I'm in. I've tried with both Microsoft's Virtual Desktop Manager and with VirtuaWin.
Also, some of the memory reaping seems a little too aggressive... I've had more freezes waiting for FF to swap back after being minimized than I can ever recall.

Great idea! I wish the icon wouldn't revert back to firefox icon automatically when minimized to tray. Can you please fix that??

This addon is just great:) Works perfect on Thunderbird 3.0a1.
I need one more option - "Start Thunderbird minimized". I hope you add this ;)

Further to my earlier review...this has been causing some serious issues on my machine. It waas hard to figure out at first but here is the detail:
The addon worked great and I have a few other addons too, too many to mention but they all seem compatible and no problems so far to talk of. Then I went to my Bank website and, when AI Roboform dialogue popped up to fill the login form in for me, the firefox froze. I tried to minimise but no response. I tried to click the usual firefox button on the taskbar and still no response. then I tried to click on an open directory from the taskbar...same, no response. I found that whatever other applications or folders I had open and had placed their button in the taskbar, were not able to respond top clicking them whenever this firefox freeze took place. I tested it and kept returning to the bank site and it happened every time, the only way was always to end the process of firefox, then the PC would return to normal. though often taskmanager would not respond either so it was a problem!
I disabled this addon and everything was back to normal so it was easy to work out the cause of these problems!! I have messed around with the settings and now I have it actually able to work but I still get the odd slight freeze when roboform pops up, but it unfreezes within a second, unlike before! The memory settings in the addon, I set them really high...I set the allowed memory to 500Mb and the timer to 30seconds. this is the only change in settings that will allow me to even be able to use this addon. Anything else I do does not stop it freezing.
PLEASE CAN YOU LOOK INTO THIS (if you have the time) as I think this is the best addon I have used for such a long time and would hate to stop using it now.

這是一個很好的附加元件,可惜無法在Linux上使用。一大遺憾。
A great add-on but it can't works on Linux! Just disappointed about it.

Dare i say it....Much much better than minimise to tray ever as for me..It used to make the browser flicker when it minimised but this doesn't do that. This is a great addon. Brilliant. What more can i say?!
Thank you.

Works perfectly but it spoils the Thunderbird window header as well as the app button name in the taskbar. There are some odd symbols (with incompatible code page i guess). Please fix this very usefull addon not to replace the original window name, not all of FF/TB users are chineeze!

Отличное дополнение. Наконец-то появилось дополнение, которое действительно сворачивает приложение в трей. Работает как с Firefox 3.0, так и Thunderbird 2.0. Ничего лишнего - просто и легко настраиваемо.

Nice!
Provides the 'minimize to tray' support for FF3 I've been waiting for. The other features are a nice bonus too.
