    Okay okay I just got Object Dock Plus. The cool version!

    I'm looking through all the options but I don't see the option to load the system tray into the Object Dock.

    How do I go about this?? :p

    Oh COOL..I have been fighting the urge for a few years now and just keep threatening to buy it...

    It looks like so much FUN...as if I need yet another place to waste my 6 or 7 remaining heartbeats... ;)

    Have you tried messing with the Positioning settings in the ObjectDock Properties?

    Thanks to this thread, I bought plus last night (was bored, had 20 bucks to throw away..lol)

    Anywho...If you have Vista, System Tray funcionality is not implemented yet (same for XP x64)

    If you have XP x32, you need to make sure sdmcp.exe is a running process.

    What is good about Object Dock? atm I am using scrolling toolbar widget, which I suppose is a rudimentary version of object dock. 9 objects in it and it uses only 8200k in task manager and doesn't slow down start up time at all. How much ram use for object dock?

    it's using 15000k on my system. And, without knowing much about yahoo widgets (only widget programs in general) I'd say OD has simply more options for configuration etc.

    Pretty neat program, actually...
