OT: dropbox question

[Brian Cluff]

I'm not quite sure which icon you are trying to get rid of.  The one on 
the left appears to be an icon on the panel that would launch an 
application the other (smaller one on the right) appears to be TSR in 
the tray.

To get rid of the one on the left, click the cashew button on the 
extreme right of the panel.  Then hover your mouse over the icon.  A 
small window will pop up directly over the icon with it's name and an X 
on the right side.  Just click the X and the icon will go away.

To get rid of the tray item, right click on the little triangle that is 
just left of the clock, and select system tray settings.  Then locate 
the drop box app under "Extra Items" and uncheck the box next to it.  If 
it doesn't show up under extra items, click the "Entries" tab and if it 
shows up under that set it's visibility to hidden.
