How do I remove the "Safely Remove Hardware" Icon?

[Freeman]

No biggy really but it's an icon that i never use and want to remove from my icon on the bottom right of my start bar. I like to keep things as clean as possible.

I have found no boxes to untick and generally no place to remove this icon.

Does anyone know how i can do this please? And if it's not possible, oh well eh, will just have to live with it!

Cheers

If you right click on the start button, choose properties, then taskbar - you can hide inactive icons - is that what you're after?

Hmm not really as then it hides other icons i don't want hidden >.<

Thanks anyways.
