Does anyone here know how I can minimize Windows Live Messenger to my System Tray?

Note: My OS (Operating System) is Windows XP Professional (2002) Service Pack 3.

Just close the main window (don't exit). Messenger should still be running in the tray.

I know how to minimize WLM to the System Tray with the X (Close) button...

I was just hoping there was a way to configure WLM so the normal Square (Minimize) button minimizes WLM to the System Tray, instead of minimizing WLM to the Taskbar.

Does it really matter whether you have to push _ or X button? At least you're not stuck with Win7 version where the Live program will be always present in the taskbar and eliminating it from there will close the program completely.
