Unless you are very brave.
It seems that each program determines on it's own to create a systray icon. This is further complicated by allowing it to load on startup or not.
You might be able to edit it by these keys, but it is a rather long string within the subkey. Personnally I'd be too chicken. ;-)

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\TrayNotify]
"PastIconsStream"=-
"IconStreams"=-

Stray away from this as of right now... maybe I will mess with it on a test computer sometime. Right now.. im too chicken as well!
