use winsight that comes with Delphi
when you move the mouse over the tray icon you'll get messages for that window handle.
the next thing would be to find out the unique number for that icon, it's in the NOTIFYICONDATA
then you can send a msg NIM_DELETE for that icon
the application may of course update the icon after you deleted it
