I assume that it isn't managed... it doesn't have a titlebar or a border
or anything. *shrugs* At any rate, that's what I meant... I have no way
of accessing a titlebar menu and clicking "store settings" because,
well, there's no titlebar :)

And, it's not supposed to have a titlebar or anything... the DnD Basket
a little 64x64 icon that I can drag around to any part of the screen,
that will stick on top of all my other programs, so that I can Drag n
Drop URLs to it that I want D4X to download. A titlebar would make it
that many pixels larger, taking up space on my screen that is
unnecessary.

The DnD basket isn't actually a program, it is a component of
Downloader4X... I can turn it on or off from inside the D4X main window.
I don't suppose there's any other way of making something permanently go
away from the taskbar...? :o
