Hello Peterx, whats its name? Can you double click on it?

If you wish to remove just the program, best to Uninstall it.

If you wish to just remove the entry from the Systray, click Start, Run, type in msconfig enter, click on the Start Up tab, locate the one you wish to remove, click ok, restart computer.

Come back if you have any problems.

Hi!
If I double click on it the new page opens (it is just a link to a web page which is called SpywareQuake-www.spywarequake.com/?aff=247)
It is just an icon, not a program and (msconfig, click on the Start Up tab)dose not help.
