If you're using Windows XP, you can hide is using Customize My Desktop, however this doesn't keep it from being used which can be done by right-clicking and modifiying it's properties.

i assume that by Customize My Desktop means right clicking the desktop, clicking Properties, going to Desktop, and click Customize Desktop. i went there but there was no option to remove it from the desktop.

That has everything excluding the recycle bin.

@FatBastard: Have a quick google on hiding your recycle bin. There's a few tweaks to allow this.
