I’ve told you yesterday that we would start the week slowly with a Vista Tip and Trick that wasn’t useful for every Windows Vista user. Yesterday we had a tutorial for disabling Vista Aero. Today I want to show you a Vista Tip and Trick that is useful for everyone. Today we have a Vista tutorial for removing the Vista Security Shield Icon in your system tray which is to me pretty annoying.

 

If you want to hide this Vista Security Shield Icon from your system tray you’ll need to follow the next few steps.

 

  • Right click on the Vista Security Shield Icon.

 

 

  • Open your Security Center.
  • Now click on Change the Way Security Center Alerts Me.

 

 Computer Tips, Tricks, Tweaks and Tutorials   Remove the Vista Security Shield Icon.

 

  • Now select Don’t notify me and don’t display the icon (even though Windows tells you it’s Not Recommended).

 

And that’s it, now you have removed the Vista Security Shield Icon. Have a great day and I’ll talk to you tomorrow.
