Hi.
I have win-2000 with IE 5.5. Well you know those pesky little icons on the task bar. I want to know how to rid myself of them...
I know the trick about right clicking the task bar and going into the properties. Then doing the remove bit, or even going into the advanced area, and doing stuff there. Maybe thats all there is to it. What do you think though.

Thanks......Pat

You have the basic answer to deleting the icons by deleting them from the startup menu,the taskbar icon is a shortcut for each program.

So,I donot think of anything else other than using Tweak UI which will give you more control to deleting the icons from the task bar

You remove the quicklaunch icons (the pesky little icons on the taskbar) by simply right-clicking the taskbar, then Toolbars, and the Quick Launch should have a check beside it. Select and left-click Quick Launch and it should remove the check and the icons from the taskbar.
