Sure. Download a free program called Revo Uninstaller. You can get it here:
http://www.revouninstaller.com/
(see the righthand side of the page, you're looking for the "Download Now" link).
Install it.
Run it.
Up at the top, you'll see a button that says "Hunter Mode." Select that.
Now you should see a little blue gunsight-like thing on your screen. Drag that so
it's pointing at the unwanted icon. When it's pointing at the offending icon, let
go of the mouse button. You'll see a menu with options. One of the options will
be "Uninstall". Choose that. Ta-dah, icon gone forever.
