No problem at all.
And I'm sorry, I wasn't being precise. I am referring to
the blue-and-red-arrow-circle "tray icon" which the
hotsync application creates in the "system tray".
Right-click on that little icon.
Here's a picture of where I'm taking about:

People still call it that, but in looking around I
learned that in Windows XP, Microsoft calls this
the "Notification area".
