Hide a program's startup window (i.e. Skype)

[nosfan1019]

Two of the apps I have set to load upon startup have a popup window that is displayed automatically. Its not a huge deal, as all I have to do is exit out of them, but I would rather them be hidden since its a bit annoying.

The windows are for Skype and SkypeCap (a skype recorder) btw. Is there a way to solve this? Maybe some use of apple script?


Thanks
Ryan

You can also right mouse click on the icon of the app and there is an option there to uncheck log in when logged on. Something like that.
