Xeyes!!!


How do you get rid of 'Xeyes'? The first time I executed the program, an icon appeared in the system tray, and I was able to close the program. On subsequent executions there was no icon and no obvious way to get rid of them. I can right- and left-click everywhere, but no option for the peepers can I find.

Now I have two 'eyes' but no way to eliminate them. Help!

Thanks.

Didn't work. 'eyes' didn't appear when I right-clicked 'Remove>Applet'

Another method which works with Xteddy is to click on the eyes, then press the 'q' key on the keyboard.
