I have a small home network with two Macs and a PC. Whenever I transfer files from one of the Macs to the PC that icon always shows up on the PC, visible but gray. Sometimes I can delete it and sometimes not. But if I reboot the PC then I can delete it. I've never seen it on the Mac.
Try doing a get info on it and see if it's locked. If it is, see if you can unlock it and then you should be able to trash it. HOWEVER, I don't know what this will do to the file it's associated with (per Schoun's email). Good luck.
