From the Start Button go to Run and type msconfig in the command window and hit OK. The Startup tab is what you are looking for. The items you decide to disable will not load at startup and the icons won't show on the systray area of the Taskbar. Check here for those items that are safe to disable:
StartupList Index
In addition, you can rt. click on the Taskbar, select Properties and check "Hide inactive icons".
