most likely there is a setting IN Norton that is re-enabling the icon
...look within Norton for "disable icon display" or the like
In my opinion, the "Norton Protection Center Icon" is an annoying
advertising ploy by Symantec. I think that it demonstrates that they have
very little regard for their customers. However, it's not too hard to get rid
of.
Go to Start/Run and type Services.msc and click OK.
In the Services (Local) window highlight "Norton Protection Center Service".
Right click it and select "Properties".
In the 'Startup type" box select "Disabled". Then click the "Stop" button.
Click OK at the bottom of the window.
If you want to turn it on again, reverse the procedure.
Now thumb your nose at Symantec.
