one way:
candybar, and an "iconless icon",
ie a blank image for the arrow.

that's what i did, anyway (i've had the icon for years...)

(u could probably make such an icon in any graphics app...)

Thanks for the reply but i found another way by using terminal. I just done a search in google and got the answer i needed and it seems to work without any problems.
Thank you

Could you post a link to that information Thomas, so if anyone else searches for this in the future the information will be here.
