Does anyone know how to hide Firefox from Applications/Processes tabs in Task Manager so that some other program I am using should not see that Firefox is running alongside?

Thanks in advance

Not sure why you need to hide FF. IE will run at the same time of FF so that can't be a problem. What program are you trying to run and what problem are you having? :confused:

Thank you for the reply. Don't want to hide IE, just FF. Check your PM

I know of no way to hide a application in Task Manager.
My concern is a security measure that it sounds like in your pm which can't be bypassed by GTG pursuant to our TOU below.
