Angry Safly remove device prompt
Ok, the problem I am having is with the annoying prompt that comes up when you remove a device (prompt.jpg). I hate having to click "ok" every dam time I remove a thumb drive. How can you change it so that it will just pop up a balloon instead, like in XP?

I know that it will pop up the balloon when you go into my computer, right click on the device and then select safely remove (prompt2.jpg). But I do not want to have to go into my computer every time I want to eject a device (too much clicking). I use a lot of thumb drives/mp3 players so this is getting really freaking annoying.

If anyone could help me with this, that would be AMAZING.

On my machines they will go away when I close the "Safe to remove" pane that I get when I right click the icon in the notification area.
