Hi Grant,

There where a lot of questions about that, the answer is simple no. Untill
now we did not seen a solution that did make the programs smaller.

Only one solution there has been in this newsgroup to let it look smaller in
the taskmanager.
(The guy who did make it, did know that, however he did it because his
systemadmin did always complain. After that everybody was happy)
