Welcome aboard, Steve612.

Looks like a nasty solder splash there.

Have you tried GENTLY scratching with your fingernail at the edge of the splash, going in the same direction as the traces?

If you're lucky, the splash may not have adhered to the traces.

thank you very much!
i removed it successfuly with a small peace of wood, unfortunetly i couldn't put my nail on it the space between 2 ics is very small..

i hope it will work. ..

Looks like no traces were damaged, so you should be fine.
