Hi,

Thank you for your reply (despite my choise of the wrong list).

In order not to split the thread I will still reply here. I hope this is OK.

Hmm, not really unfortunately. I already found this information but it
does not state how to remove either of them. Or is the (implicit)
answer: It is not possible?

Both tray icons are handleded by the same process (netidmgr.exe), be it
because of a plugin or not. So I would expect to be able to remove at
least one.

As far as I know I must have both MIT Kerberos and OpenAFS Client installed.
