if so, then sure it can.

there are a multitude of programs out there that can do this for you. I use TrayIt. I do that for Thunderbird. Haven't tried with Metatrader but it should work.

also another cool program is Taskbar Shuffle. With it you can drag programs around on the taskbar to changed their order. It is great when you are running multiple versions of MT and like them in a specific order.

Maybe I am missing something in what is being asked for but why not just drag and drop a shortcut(s) to the task bar next to the Start. I have approximately twenty programs readily accessible by using this bar. I usually have just three icons showing but the bar can be stretched to expose as many as you desire to have visible.

I think we should rename this thread "software that does the things windows should"

I like the idea. We could forward the thread to Bill Gates.
