How do I remove the language bar from XP?

It took me a few hours to find out myself. After receiving more than a few emails asking the same thing, I will share the answer.

It’s not that you can’t right click and say remove, the problem is it comes back.

1. Click”Start”, then “Control Panel”
2. Hit “Date, Time, Language, and Regional Options”, then “Regional and Language Options”
3. Press “Languages” tab, then “Details” button
4. Choose “Langage Bar” button at bottom, and then uncheck “Show the language bar on the desktop”
5. Press “OK” and it’s gone.

Repeat above to re-enable it if you ever need it. One less thing to clutter up our desktops!
