Some try to do it without even the courtesy of asking :) Same here . Clock, VNC Server, Avast, Safely Remove Hardware, Volume, Sygate and PopTray which is there only half the time . I could get away with having only half that lot there if I were bothered . |

Generally when I'm having to de-crappify a friends non-functional / poorly functional computer, one of the first things I look at is all the bullsh in the system tray. Usually a bit of googling will reveal some to be malware, some to be totally pointless, but all to be using resorces that could be freed up! I despair when they complain 'my computers going soooo sloooow lately', and I find so much useless excrement being loaded up all the time. Some people seem to find a long line of icons something to be proud of. Personally, I think it reflects something totally different in them, that nobody should be proud of. |
