THANK YOU CYBERDJOX !!!

You deserve a medal. That thing had been annoying me for MONTHS. I’m particular about clean and order on my computer, especially desktop files.

Thanks again.

If it freezes after right clicking on desktop icon, you can try this:
1. Double click on the icon to open the folder.
2. Select Tools –> Folder Options
3. Select Settings Tab.
4. Click Setup button.
5. Choose Do Not Show Share-To-Web Folder.

This should get rid of the folder from the desktop!

I am convinced that hp produce great scanners. But since I got my 2400, I learned to swear. The software to use this great scanner is STUPID. I’ve complained to hp when on warranty and they behave same stupid way.

It is possible to do things but it is extremely difficult because features are hidden or appear at wrong situation. In general the software makes this scanner useless.

Does anyone know if there is an alternative software available?

I have used lots of scanners in last 20 years. It seems that humble canon is the simplest to use and when you press a button you know in advance what will happen.
With hp you do not know where to look for you want, or if there is something what will it do. Two sets of manager on desktop, what they do and why not 22 managers? then which twain driver to choose, one is about same as other. What a nonsense. It is very frustrating to use this p.. ..t.

Hi everyone. I’m very glad that my advice helped people in here. These kind of things are something that I deal with all the time . Those “bugs” from HP with that non-deletable icon is mainly Vista related. Software for many older HP scanner products are made for compatibility with Windows XP and not for some newer systems like Vista and similar. That’s why this bug with non-deletable icon occurs. I had this problem only with Windows Vista. I mostly use HP products because when it comes to printing and scanning, those are the best products in my opinion. And to be honest with you, Windows Vista is the WORSE operating system I have ever used in my entire life! The only thing that OS is good for is gaming, and nothing else. …internet security sucks on Vista …actually a lot of things suck on Vista, but I believe I don’t have to say that because you’ll see that for yourself if you are using it. Shame on Microsoft . For HP products and similar, I would suggest using Windows XP Service Pack 2 with latest hot fixes and patches that can be downloaded from the Microsoft’s website. Also, there are HP drivers for Ubuntu 8.10 on the net. (if you use Linux ). I hope that my advices will help to many more people that come here. Have a nice day everyone.
