I just installed plugged-in and ecternal harddrive with Vista Home Basic
SP2.
The moment I plugged in the USB an icon appeared in the Notification area:
'Safely Remove Hardware'.
I'ver notice a setting in the properties of the drive that
'Optimize for quick removal' is checked but I'm not sure if changing this
will prevent the iceopn from appearing.
How can I prevent this icon from appearing?

Thanks,
James
