I want a music player at work that ONLY sits in my system tray... and I can click it to change songs and stop playback. Does WinAmp do this? I want it to only be in the tray, nowhere else.

No, I'm not trying to get around some sort of work policy. I just don't like Media player taking up valuable space on the taskbar.

WinAmp can be used in the system tray only.

I HIGHLY recommend downloading Winamp 2.95 from this link:

Seems perfect for what you need.

Thanks guys.

It does the tray thing... is there a plugin or any other way to have the play, pause, next track, and stop buttons show up when you click the icon in the tray?

Don't know about that, but if you download the MagAmp plugin, whenever you move your mouse to the upper-left of the screen, those buttons will pop up for you.
