Hide System Tray Icon

hi i have windows 7 and was wondering how to completely hide or remove an icon from the system tray?
Not all of them, just one. [JDownloader’s icon if it helps] : )
Answer #1
Highlight your taskbar then Right Click and go to Properties-> Customize where it says “notification area”. From the list find the jdownloader icon and choose “only show notifications”. Alternatively you can do this from Control Panel-> Notification Area Icons or by choosing the “Customize” option at the arrow shown at the bottom right area of your taskbar. Done.

Go to settings and then extension. Remove the tick on the left of JD Light Tray. This should remove the tray icon.

You asked how to remove the icon from systray in your first post, I answered accordingly. Anyway you can use Eusing’s “Taskbar Hide” to hide icons from both the tray and taskbar. You should be able to find it on the forum. Just be sure to hide Taskbar Hide’s tray and taskbar icons too.

If your brother is smart enough, all he has to do is look at your running processes or the extremely flashing led on your router or modem.
