Because I can see, it’s of great interest for many people - from all the forums I have searched - I ask the same question again!!
And no IM_DISABLED=1 doesn’t work 
Soo…
I have installed this client and starting the notes client - the Lotus Sametime connect 8.0 start as well in the system tray, which I don’t want to. (We don’t use it)
This very superb piece of software - there must be a way to disable this!!??
Please help - thanks 
Any Lotus/IBM’er around ??
