Removing Bluetooth places icon on desktop?

[jonny_uk]

How do i do this?

Ive got my "Bluetooth places" icon on my start bar and on task bar when its in use so i dont need it on the desktop, right clicking the icon only brings up 2 options, "create shortcut" or "start using bluetooth"

Nope just tried and it doesnt even go into it.

The icon ISNT a shortcut by the way.
