oh, I'm sorry to hear that (on xp pro here I don't have windows messenger's icon disappearing on minimize) - I was really looking for feedback from win9x users though. :P

I'm afraid there's not really anything I can do about that Marrre, you should contact jesus_mjjg (developer of taskbar3) and submit a bug report.

For the 9x users I was merely trying to ascertain what version of taskbar3.dll works for them. For NT/2k/XP users, the latest version of taskbar3 is as good as it gets. (Which is pretty good IMHO.) ;)
