Taskbar icons

The icon bar in the bottom right hand corner of my screen is cluttered, with the usual crop of time and date, volume control, power, etc. There are, as I type, 10 icons there.

8 of those I want because they do something I want. Two I don't - one called "Bluetooth Network - A network cable is unplugged" and the other "Local Area Connection - A network cable is unplugged". I know both of those are unplugged cos I'm using the laptop which works via WiFi for 99% of the time.

I right-click the taskbar, select "Properties" - "Customise" and set those to "Always Hide" and they go away.

The next time I switch on, the <expletive deleted> things are back. I assume this is some fiendish plot. Does anyone know how to STOP them creeping back after every reboot?

There are another five or so icons that are set to "Always Hide" and they behave perfectly.
