I am informed that cleaning the system tray will relieve the pc of unneccessary memory usage. I should leave in as few as possible. Installing pogrammes over time fill the tray up and reduce efficiency. Is this true? However, the only advice so far is to remove the programmes, yet, I use most of these, so can I free memory like this yet keep the programmes intact? thanks!

Start > Run > Type in: msconfig
Go to the Start up of the window that appears
You will see everything being loaded into the system try there
Uncheck anything you do not want to load
(Usually, that is everything except your virus scanner)
If you change your mind, you can go back and recheck the item(s)

Yes it does hog resource, not massively but if you want rid of them a simple right click and select delete will get rid of them.
