Right-click and choose Delete.
The proper procedure should be to go to add/remove programs and uninstall it from there. That would take care of the shortcut and all registry stuff.

there are 2 places you can go to prevent programs from starting up
1st click start-all programs-start up folder-in here you can delete whatever you dont want to load at start up. dont worry you are not deleting the programs off your computer just preventing them from starting at log on.
2nd click start-run-type this msconfig-hit enter-start up tab-in here you will see programs that start at log on will have a check in the box. it isnt always easy to tell what some of these things are. the best way to do it is by trial and error uncheck a couple reboot and see what happens if there are any troubles after unchecking something just go back and put the check again. there isnt anything you can do permanant here so dont worry.
once you are done and reboot for the last time when you log on it will tell you that you are using a customized start up blah blah blah you can put a check in the box not to display that anymore.
the 2nd option is kind of tedious but the end result is a faster log on and less RAM being used in the background.
good luck

Run the msconfig utility.
Go to Start, then Run and type in: msconfig
Go to the startup tab
You will see a list of all the programs that are loaded when your computer starts up.
Look for the Quicktime program and uncheck it
While there, uncheck any of the other startups that you do not have to have. (Usually you can uncheck them all).
If you decide you to need one, you can go back and recheck it.
Your computer will boot and run faster if you do not have all the needless stuff running on loadup.

Right click on the start button, and select explore. You should get a window that shows the icons in your start menu- just delete the shortcuts you want to remove!
Easy Peasy!

In domicile windows XP suited click the icon you prefer to delete. A menu would desire to seem. click delete and it is going to disappear. Deleting the icons will purely do away with them from the pc and not from the pc. in case you prefer to uninstall a game, although, bypass to initiate, click administration Panel, then upload Or do away with classes, and uninstall besides the fact that video games you prefer.

There is an option in QuickTime's preferences about showing the System Tray Icon...make sure it is unchecked.
