Guys, I need some help. I can't seem to get rid of the Safely Remove Hardware icon in the system tray. I have disconnected the cable modem and printer when prompted, and after I reboot, the icon re-appears. Any suggestions that you might have would greatly be appreciated.

Thanks,

Ted

You can get rid of this icon by pressing the right mouse button on the right side of the task bar(above the date)and select properties then choose 'customize notifications' Goto the 'safely remove hardware icon' and choose always hide

Good Luck! Hope I was helpful.
