Hide WoW - Or any other window.

[randombob]

While this may be simple AutoIt code, I thought I'd post for those who don't know how to use AutoIt.

The program hides your active window into 1 of 5 "memory slots". You use F1 - F5 to select which "slot" to use.

This can be used to hide WoW from your boss (or anyone). :P

Excuse the messy coding - I'm still an AutoIt noob

To compile it you'll need to download AutoIt: Direct Link - AutoIt Homepage

PS: I wasn't 100% sure if this would be the right section to post this so if I got it wrong, please move it to the correct section.

Now.. run it without adding your window names and shit, and it makes your dekstop icons dissapear..

EDIT - I meant.. whatever window is active, and if no windows are active your icons will dissapear

I'm a noob at autoit also, lol, but it's fun to mess around with
