How to get HP Support Assistant off my Taskbar?

Hi Crizal and all,

Just wanted to let you all know that the suggestion of Crizal to uncheck the option of having an HPSA icon in the taskbar solved my problem. That is exactly what I wanted -- to be able to use the program but not have it bugging me all the time on my Taskbar.

Thanks and regards,
