I'm not sure what point you were making about Mozilla.  I run 1.31b and
I almost always have multiple Moz windows open.  When I hit the X on
one, it quits that one.  All the rest stay open so I'm not sure what
you're saying.

On my wife's Windows machine, the X button does indeed minimize ICQ.  I
don't like that behavior there either.  It's the only app on that
machine to behave that way.

And what would happen if I didn't have a Notification Area (I'm too
chicken to get rid of it for fear that it would be difficult to get
back)?  I'm of the opinion that if I want something minimized, I'll hit
the minimize "_" instead of the close "X".

Just my opinion.
