Complete removal of some icons in system tray

Thanks for responding Ayush.

The programs don't have an option to not start at start-up. I checked that
before I came here. I want the programs to be available to use but I don't
want the icon in my systray. I want them "on demand" such as Media Player,
Microsoft Word, Nero, and others.

Turning them off using MSConfig will cause my pc to not check the programs
to see if they're working properly when I boot up. I don't want to do that.
I want them to be configured properly but out of my systray.

You could try "PS Tray Factory" from www.pssoftlab.com

Works for me.

The icons were the result of downloading a codec bundle. It also included
Quicktime, which has never worked on my pc . . . it always freezes it, no
matter where I get the program. I was very surprised to see the icons in my
systray for codecs. I've removed icons from my systray before using
Services. These codecs aren't listed in Services.

Considering that they're simply codecs that I can pick up anywhere without
this problem, I'll uninstall them. They're in Add/Remove Programs.

I did uninstall Quicktime using Add/Remove Programs but the icon is still in
Add/Remove Programs. Any suggestions?

When clicking on each registry key, none name the program that is associated
with it. It's impossible to find using that method. The folders beneath the
registry keys are named. Would deleting one of the folders remove the
program?
