I did a little research, and discovered that there is really no easy way to remove leftover or duplicate icons from the System Tray. While deleting desktop icons is fairly simple, deleting trace System Tray icons for programs you no longer have installed on your PC involves fooling around with the registry. So the best way to deal with these "ghost" icons is to just leave them alone.

Hi Flor,

Thank you sir, for your response.  The Icons in the system tray are no
problem at all.  I was just curious if there was a way to stop the Icons
from being there if a person didn't want them in the sys tray and curiosity
also pushed me over the edge, to wonder if there was a way to eliminate
multiple listings in the customize list realizing that I could recustomize
the Icons but, the curiosity is if they could be deleted somehow.  I
couldn't find a way to do so.  Thanks again, take care.
Mike

Hi Mike,

re-customize those icons you don't want shown.

What is the problem with having a 'you have new email' icon in your
system Tray, anyway?  It goes away after a bit.  I prefer to have hide
inactive icons unchecked, and things are working normally so that I can
work with any program there should the the need arise.  (Each program
there normally occurs only once under those settings.  if it occurs more
than once, as on occasion, I just close one of the instances of it and
that tends to fix it.)

Hi All,

Thanks again Gerald & David for the great steps/information but, after
getting into the customize notification tray to make the settings
changes I
noticed that there were icons in there that are not on my computer
anymore
or for instance, Jaws for windows, NVDA,& Super Anti Spuyware are in
the
list multiple times.  Does anyone know a way to remove the multiple
listings
of particular icons?  All help will be graciously appreciated.  Thanks
again.  Take care.
Mike
