tray area's hide icon option won't work :/

[CronicHazel]

Alright this is my first time encountering this and i dunno what to do o-o'

I've already gone to properties -> hide inactive icons, and even checked 'Customize' make sure that they are hidden, but they jsut won't hide. Like there's an arrow if you turn the option on, and there edge is just blank if u don't have it turned out. I turn on the option and the arrow is just not there at all.

Does anyone have any idea what's going on? @_@

at the end Im getting a bit confused with what you are saying but when you have the hide unused icons for the tray it just shortens the tray bar and adds an arrow so you can expand it and access those icons if need be

What are the programs which icons are remaining?

Programs such as MSN & Your connection status typically remain as these programs dont become inactive.

Could you show us a screenshot?
