wtf is this?

[granny]

I keep getting a weird little icon appearing in my taskbar every now and again when I'm using IE6. It appears and as soon as I mouse-over it to see what it is it instantly disappears! Very odd.

Anyone got any idea what it is?

It looks like a laptop to me m8.

 

[Ono]

Oooh, it looks like one of those portable DVD players with a 7 inch 16:9 screen.

No no its synching your homepage...

Goto Start > Programs > Accessories > Synchronise

Then turn it off

 

[granny]

Ahhhhh thanks PR that makes sense

I put active desktop on the other day with some BBC weather pics and set them to synchronise every hour, funnily enough that's exactly when it started appearing

Hmm... my instincts lead me to deduce that your taskbar is WAY TOO FULL, Holmes!

never mind the laptop icon, what about that bloody big red arrow, I'm sure that shouldn't be there.

I know, kinda use all that stuff though, there's no dross in there apart from the USB cardport icon which won't fuck off how ever much I tell it to.

If you had XP you could mark it as 'always hidden'.

I tried Trillian, hated it, user-interface designed by monkeys or something.

And the little smiley face is a secret app installed by the government to tell me when it's time to add the LSD to the local water supply.
