[help]getting Rid Of Recycle Bin

How in blazes do you get the XP standard recycle bin off the desktop? I try everything, but it just comes back, I don't want that ugly thing on my desktop anymore, and I don't like using "hide icons" because if a program wacks out, then they reappear all messed up.

use tweakui to remove it from the desktop. :)

Or right click the desktop and uncheck the 'show desktop icons' option. Of course this gets rid of all your icons, but that's a good thing :D

Or apply this registry key, then go to Control Panel>Folder Options>View (second tab) ---- it should already be there :)
