    No idea; almost looks like an app has failed to load or unload properly. Have you tried restarting and re-running the applications you are running to see if it appears again?

    It's one of the AW apps, I've had it before, I think the OSDmanager, kill the process and restart it and it will go away. If not that one, try the others.

    I saw this on my M17 once so far. Has me boggled, but click unload and poof, it's gone. Looks like some research is invovled to find out what it is.

    /hijack

    I do however have the problem of when I open the AW Command thing and click "fusion" it crashes on me constantly. I have a feeling that someone has answered or fixed this already and I'm just being lazy about it. haha.

    /hijack off

    ooh. it just happened again. I am thinking it is the fingerprint software failed to load. ( I had disabled the fingerprint and its relate function two months ago, but i still have a icon shows on the window login screen. i think this might be the reason for that ?? )
