Icon stays in Task Bar After Outlook Closes

[Elmo Watson]

I would like to close/quit/exit Outlook and make the icon in the task bar go
away.

However, it doesn't. Is there anyway to do this?

If my computer at home is still on (outlook closed) - I can't get any email
while I'm at work, from the same accounts, because the icon is still active
in the task bar and all the email is going to my home computer.

Thanks
