Me and my buddy at work were working on this earlier today and didn't get very far ... if anyone's bored and wants a challenge, here goes:

Under Windows Xp taskmgr, when one selects "hide when minimized" from the options menu ... where in the heck does taskmgr store this setting ?! My buddy informs me he didn't have much luck with regmon, I looked at it as well and saw nothing "obvious" in the registry ... he was config-safing last thing I heard (no luck last time I checked) ...

I want to configure taskmgr to autostart from the run key for our users - but for "new" user profiles, I want to force (poke) this taskmgr setting for the hide in minmized ...

Might have to script the RUN and sendkeys to taskmgr but cripes, this flag must be somewhere.

Any help/thoughts appreciated.
