Irritating Icon
I have in my desktop taskbar the icon for "Safely Remove Hardware". I have
tried everything to make it go away. Sits right next to the clock. The icon has a green arrow pointing left and slightly downward and some sort of hardware. I have tried the usual methods of removing it but I must be missing something. Thanks for any suggestions. -- Darrell My email: My web site: www.darrellbassett.com

Do you understand the purpose of the icon?

Why is it irritating? I find its use very reassuring when I'm ready to detach a removable USB drive. -- Sharon F MS-MVP ~ Windows XP Shell/User
