Chris meant to send this to *trudelle* for reassignment ;-)

Comment 3

[Jesse Ruderman]

This is a bug in Windows, IMO.

Comment 4

[timeless]

this is a problem in explorer.exe, not windows. mousing over the icons usually 
kills them.

Comment 5

[Jaime Rodriguez, Jr.]

"Usually", but not always. As reported in the original bug, one of the icons,
just wouldn't go away ... persisted ... and, I was not able to be remove it
wihtout a reboot of the system.

I have not seen any that didn't disappear on mouseover.  Other than having an
extra icon, are there any other symptoms (especially anything bad) associated
with this?  Given that this usually doesn't happen, and depends on an unrelated
crash, I don't see why we'd risk fixing it for eMojo.  nsbranch-, ->law, p3/096

It is possible if there was a HANG rather than a crash an icon wont go away and
it will fail to respond. But then that is the way it is.

I think we should resolve this bug out as WORKSFORME

I can't reproduce this.
