If you have an USB device attached to your system, you will notice an icon in the Notification area, which - when clicked -
will give you the option to Stop your hardware, before you unplug it.

It is possible that you never unplug this hardware. So how do you get rid of the icon? Right-click the notification area, and selecting Properties. Under the Notification area heading, click Customize. Find the Safely Remove Hardware icon and select "Always hide" in the Behavior column next to it (press OK and Apply to back out).

See if it's in the location as shown above but instead of "Always hide" change it to "Always show".
