I have a program that runs all of the time. I can, of course,

about getting the icon to show up in the taskbar?

Do you want it to show an icon in the system tray, at the right side
of the taskbar? The program might have a built-in option for that.
If not, here are some utility programs that say they can minimize
programs to the system tray:

You can probably find more by doing a web search for "minimize to
system tray" or similar strings.
