Looks like it might be related to Skype. The folks I get work from 
require that I have Skype, so I start it up in the morning and shut it 
off after the work is done for the day. There's a green icon that shows 
up in the indicator section of the top line on the screen when Skype is 
loaded. It goes away when I quit Skype from that icon's menu. The red 
circle with a slash through it didn't go away after quitting Skype, but 
the Skype menu came up when I left clicked on it. After a reboot it is 
not there. I'll see if it shows up again tomorrow, and if it's still 
there after quitting Skype.
