Ok i just downloaded icontact, but i cant figure out how to set it to open when i open my contacts...Any help?

Are you talking about when you press you contacts (soft) key, if so you need to change
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Today\Keys\11 2
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Today\Keys\11 3
112 is the left key and 113 is the right.
Set Default to what you want the key to read (ie. SMS)
Now for each key create a new string named Open and set the target path.
You will need a registry editor like PHM Registry Editor

Get a registry editor. Open HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Shell\Rai\:MSCONTACS\1

Change the String to the path to whichever application you want to use for contacts.

EDIT - You can also do it Darkness' way if you just want to change the softkey. Editing the above will change it everywhere.. Start Menu, etc.

I used darkness' way, set it to icontact.exe and threw the .exe into /windows
it was the simplest way
