Remove Icons for USB Devices from Notification Area.

• Right-click within the notification area, and then click Properties.

• In the Display Properties dialog box, click the Appearance tab, and then click Advanced.

• On the Taskbar tab, click Customize.

• Select Safely remove hardware, and in the Behavior column, click Always hide.

• You may also hide the icon for a particular USB device by right-clicking its icon on the taskbar, and then clicking Hide Icon.

USB stands for Universal Serial Bus. This is the name for a class of hardware that makes it easy to add peripheral devices (such as a mouse, keyboard, joystick, or digital camera) to your computer. If your mouse, keyboard, game controller, scanner, or other device has a USB connector, you can plug it into a USB port.
