Cisco IP Communicator
Agent Desktop supports the use of the Cisco IP Communicator soft phone. This 
application is not provided with Agent Desktop and must be purchased and installed 
separately.
You must start IP Communicator manually (it does not start automatically when you 
start Agent Desktop). To conserve system resources, keep IP Communicator 
minimized as much as possible and use the Agent Desktop interface for call control.
To ensure that IP Communicator does not maximize when a call is received (the 
default setting) you must change your preferences as outlined in the following 
procedure.
To make sure IP Communicator remains minimized when a call is received:
1. Start IP Communicator.
2. Right-click anywhere on the interface to display a popup menu, and then 
choose Preferences.
The Preferences dialog box appears.
3. On the User tab, select the Hide on minimize and clear the Bring to front on 
active call and Hide incoming call notification check boxes.
4. Click OK.
