Unzip and place the attached execute file somewhere on your PPC then run the execute. Comes back after a soft reset so place in the start up menu if you want it to start automatically after reset.

What are you trying to download? None of the tweaks are downloadable, but you do need to download a registry editing app. I'll update the first post to include links to apps to edit the registry.

Thank you Big D5! I appreciate it. Sorry i haven't been on top of this thread at all this weekend. I switched to a new email in my account and haven't gotten any updates emailed to me about postings in this thread.

Big D5, your suggestion will remove the text associate with the softkeys, right? To me it sounded like he wanted the plug-in bar at the bottom to be removed. In any case, this isn't really a registry fix is it? If not, I probably won't update the first post to reflect this, unless an overwhelming majority of people think I should...

Thanks Big D5 Ill have to give this a try. What I am looking for is something to do away with the bottom system tray all together on the Today Screen. I used Wise Bar Advanced 3 and it would do away with it. I was unsure if it was worth purchasing though and have since been looking for a hack or other freeware to do away with it.

After installing NoBar it was not what I was looking for but works similarly. It removes the bottom system tray as well as the Bottom task Bar wich has the 2 soft keys Messaging, and Menu. You can still access them the same exact way you just dont see them. Pretty cool app Thanks Big D5. Ill have to mess with it a little more but I can try and see if this may actually work better.

You are correct it is a execute file and not registry hack so no need to add to the list but I figured it might help solve "Improve's" problem so I posted it.

Absolutely, I don't have a problem with that. I hope I didn't make it sound like I did. I'm all about trying to help someone solve their problem as I know you are too. I just wanted to double check how the fix was implemented (reg or exe or some other method). Thanks mate, cheers!
