Hi Mukhtar,

I don't believe you can hide the Windows Mathematica kernel, other than 
to minimize it to the taskbar (default behavior).  On some other 
operating systems (like the Linux version I'm using now), the kernel 
process does not have a window that needs hiding.  That may not be a 
built-in option for Mathematica on MSWindows, though.  If it is 
possible, it would probably be an option available within the kernel's 
window, and not from the notebook-interface window (the two are actually 
separate programs).

There used to be some third-party applications which could move *any* 
program's entry from the taskbar to the system tray or another location. 
  I tried them on older versions of Windows; I don't know which ones are 
good now.

may work for you, but be warned that I haven't even installed it.

Good luck,
Daniel
