    How can I remove "infrared" icon in MY COMPUTER??

    Howdy,

    Infrared is disabled in the BIOS. All references have been removed from the registry. It does not show up in an *.ico search. It is not listed in Startup. The program has been removed.

    But, when I doubled-click on My Computer, there is an "Infrared Receipent" icon listed and I do not know how to get rid of it.

    Please enlighten me.

    Thank you.

    Can you drag the icon to the recycle bin?

    Good idea, but I had already removed it from there.

    You're covering the bases......what next?!
