Sorry to grave dig this old article however there are some noteworthy aspects worth mentioning.

The best way is to call the Dispose() method from the NotifyIcon instance and then set that instance to null. Changing the Visible attribute works however this is not its intended purpose.

Also the Text property is limited to 64 characters.

The maximal length for the BallontipText is 255 characters. This is sometimes really impractical.
