How to remove icon from system tray?

[asdf]

Hello,

My VB.NET program displays a system tray icon. It works fine and when I
start app it appears and when shutdown app it disappears.
However, when my app crashes the icon stays and only it gets removed
when I point my mouse on it.
Is it possible to force removal of the system tray icon?

Any help is greatly appreciated,
Tom

Asdf,

Make your program in a way it does not crash
(Than the problem is gone as well)
