I meant to say when I hit the minimize button in the title bar.

I am having the same problem with FF 4.0b5, but you do not have to have the other programs running to experience the problem.

Is this a problem with the Skype toolbar or with the Skype application itself? It sounds like the latter.

Please consider this problem fixed as I have not had any problems with later versions.

Robert, usually the resolution of Resolved Fixed is used for when a developer
uploads a patch. 

The resolution that you should had used for this scenario is Resolved
Worksforme. Setting as such.

Thanks!
