How do you get all of these icons off the task bar?
Can't get rid of a lot of them and we've tried to delete
the Mictosoft instant messenger and we can not for the life
of us get it off the taskbar. WHY? The icon is still on the
taskbar?? Would appreciate any help, Thanks, Joyce
 
Hi Joyce,

Check for an option to not having the icon load in the System Tray via the
program(s) in question.

Other options for removal:

Go to Start/Run and type in: msconfig. Go to the Startup Tab and uncheck
accordingly. Then run this script to remove the disabled items from the
registry.
