Notification Area Question

[Bob and Shauna]

For some unknown reason, well unknown to me, when a few select programs
(unrelated programs i.e.games or a yahoo window, at times) open an icon of a
small black rotary telephone, that has the handset rise as if ringing,
appears in the notification area in the bottom right of the window. This is
accompanied by what I would describe as a wave sound of "exclamation", for
lack of a better word. When I scroll over it with the mouse the words
"Close Speaker Phone Companion" appear. I can only left click on it and it
closes. I searched through my PC's wav files and found nothing similar.
Task manager gave no clues. I have searched the web and found nothing.

So I was wondering, is there a way I can search to see what programs are
running when that icon appears?

thanks, Bob

Crystal Ball© asks: If you uninstall Yahoo Messenger, does this behavior
persist?

Yes, I unistalled Messenger and it persists. Everytime I start Commad and
Conquer it starts. It never really ran with Messenger.

Anyway of locating the source? Such as the origin of things in the
notification area?

Assuming the behavior's somehow related to Command and Conquer, try post
