I am running Windows Vista and I have a small icon in the tray that doesn't seem to have any function. It is a small number "9" in a box that looks like it is hanging from a pin. It does not respond to either left or right mouse clicks. I suppose I will have to go to task manager and start killing processes. I thought I would see if someone had a ready answer.

indication if you just hover the mouse? I run XP, but can go to toolbar properties > customize for a list of all the possibilities.

| 2. Try downloading Process Explorer |
|
formerly from sysinternals, now acquired by Microsoft. It is still free. You may be able to find the matching Icon in the process list.

| 3. It was LockStatusTray.exe by Logitech |

I found it with Process Explorer. Thanks for the tip. I uninstalled it and the icon is gone. Logictech is bad for installing mal ware like this. Real Networks is another abuser.
