The trick is to have the ShowTaskbarIcon=0 line in the [VRDB] section of the file. This will disable only the VRDB icon, not the main icon.
No, that's not the trick. I just tried it, and it removed the main icon instead, and the VRDB icon shows up when it's generating the VRDB. Anyone got a solution for this yet? I'm getting really annoyed with the VRDB icon. Will this be fixed in the next version, so the "Merge with main avast! icon" option actually works?

You must have placed the line in the [AAVM] section, not the [VRDB] section then...

Hmmm... sorry about my ignorance and jumping to conclusions. I only found one "ShowTaskbarIcon" line, and you are correct, it was under the AAVM section. I've manually added "ShowTaskbarIcon=0" under [VRDB] now and it seems to be working. Thanks a lot! :)
