I need a free utility for win7 that will minimize a program window to the tray or taskbar when clicking on the close button.

The main app I'm need it for is mozilla's Thunderbird, where none of the addons are working properly for me on v17.

rbtray will do this. It's small, free, and open source

Just right click on the minimize button

Close, thanks. I'd like to be able to click on the close button to minimize the window or send it to the tray.

Minimize to Tray Revived 1.1.2 works just fine for me as a Thunderbird 17 addin:

That's the functionality I need, but it's not working on mine.

Maybe I need to downgrade to another version.
