		<description>@&lt;a href=&quot;#comment-1000&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;essbebe&lt;/a&gt;:  I have checked the file myself with several AV programs and it is not infected. I believe you are getting a false positive because the nature of the program is to alter the system in such a way as to hide a system icon.

You don&#039;t have to take my word for it though, here is the source code of the file:

************************************************************

.386
.model flat, stdcall
option casemap :none

include ..\include\windows.inc
include ..\include\user32.inc
include ..\include\kernel32.inc
include ..\include\shell32.inc

includelib ..\lib\kernel32.lib
includelib ..\lib\user32.lib
includelib ..\lib\shell32.lib

main PROTO

.data
   sClass       db &quot;SystemTray_Main&quot;,0

.code

start:
   invoke main

main proc

       LOCAL data :NOTIFYICONDATA

       invoke FindWindow, ADDR sClass, NULL
       cmp eax, 0
       je notfound
       push eax
       invoke RtlZeroMemory, ADDR data, sizeof NOTIFYICONDATA
       mov data.cbSize, sizeof NOTIFYICONDATA
       pop eax
       mov data.hwnd, eax
       mov data.uID, 1226   
       invoke Shell_NotifyIcon, NIM_DELETE, ADDR data
       ret     

   notfound:
       invoke ExitProcess, 0
       ret
       
main endp

end start

		<description>@&lt;a href=&quot;#comment-951&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Jeannie&lt;/a&gt;:  I too have had that happen. It occurs when the program attempts to remove the icon before Windows has finished loading the taskbar. In my case, it only happens once every 50 boots or so.

You could disable the startup item for hidesrhi.exe and instead use Windows task scheduler to run the program 15 seconds after you login.</description>
