Suddenly, I have an HP Icon in my taskbar tray.  Nothing happens with I right click it.  I can't remove it via settings because it's not there.   When I click on it, it brings up HP Notebook which seems to be internet based?  I don't have any programs installed that are named that.  I can't hide it via taskbar manager because it's not listed.  It's just there and takes me to that Notebook page but I can't find it actually on my laptop anywhere.  It's like a virtual icon.   I don't want it - how do I delete it?  The less things with their tentacles in my business, the better.
