How to remove "Public" icon from Vista toolbar?

Any way to remove the "Public" icon from my Vista toolbar?

Right-clicking on that icon does not offer any choice to delete it, or
even hide it for that matter.

Clicking on a blank area of the toolbar offers no option for removing
that "Public" icon.

Darn icon just "popped up" in the toolbar one day, now I can't get rid
of it - - - No big deal, it is just that I prefer to install my own
icons in the toolbar, instead of having the damn OS jam those icons down
my throat, with no way of removing them. grrr


I assume I am calling the toolbar by its correct name, it is that area
in the extreme lower-right corner of my screen.

Actually, word "Desktop" to left of icon, word "Public" to right of icon.

Problem solved by right-clicking on blank spot in toolbar area, click
"Properties", click "Toolbar" tab, then check-mark in a box to hide that
icon.

Worked great, thanks to advice from "Dave".
