TrayEverything minimizes any app to the Windows sysem tray
Just download and install (or download the no-install ZIP version) of TrayEverything and run it. You'll see a list of running applications. Right click on any program you want to minimize to the system tray and it will disappear from the desktop and Windows taskbar. In the system tray you'll see a small icon representing the program. Just click that icon to bring the program back up.
Note that TrayEverything needs to be run each time you want to minimize an application to the system tray. Once it's restored, clicking the program's minimize button will send it to the taskbar, not the system tray. If you're looking for a more permanent solution, you might want to check out Trayconizer, a command line utility that you can add to any program shortcut in order to automatically minimize it to the system tray whenever you hit the minimize button.
