    Hello friends I have developed a dialog based MFC application in which I did not show any dialog. My application show an icon in system tray only. Also my application runs on Windows 2000 Professional. But when I open Task Manager it shows my application in process list as "myapp.exe" I want to hide that from Task Manager. Also I don't want to use any extra DLL file to do it. How to do that? Thankx in advance Mahesh

      Under windows 98 or earlier, a service will not be shown in Taskmanager by default. But under Windows 2000 or Above it is not possible to hide your process from taskmanager. It will be shown.
