What happens when you click on it? ctrl-click? Mouse-over?

That looks like the icon for Quicken. Why it's there I have no idea.

Try to delete Finder/LaunchServices cache, in Terminal enter these commands, and see if it helps :

sudo rm -f /Library/Caches/com.apple.LaunchServices.*
killall Finder

The Panther Finder often gets confused with icons. Just relaunching it helps for me. No need to delete any cache file.

Please use more descriptive titles for your threads so people know basically what it's about. I edited this one already, but just for future reference. Thanks
