Which version?  Everybuddy (obsolete codebase) or EB-Lite.

The real answer is neither.

Everybuddy uses GTK, and therefore, it is not able to make use of the system
tray in KDE.  EB-Lite is in two parts, a core, which is console, and the UI,
which can be written to use any interface.  There's currently one official UI,
ebqt, and at the moment, I don't think it is able to make use of the system tray
(yet).

That brings up a question...Is it possible to make it use the system tray, and
perhaps pop up a message the way that the official MSN client does.  It's a real
nifty idea.  I hate in Trillian having to bring up the trillian dialogue when to
find out who has just logged in, this feature is something I like in MSN.

Obviously, put an option in there to disable that, not everyone likes this feature.
