I can't tell from this code snippet what the problem might be, but I 
notice that you are both Iconizing and Hiding your main frame.  I assume 
that you are hiding it because you don't want it to show up in the task 
bar, and to just be accessible from the system tray.  If that is the 
case then you can just use Hide and Show and not worry about Iconize at 
all.  Maybe that will simplify things enough that you can figure out 
your other problem as well.
