Does something happen when you click on these labels?

It might be called something "button".  I take it you already searched
for "icon"?  "swallow" might also be a promising search string.

The output of pstree (or similar tools) might be helpful:


[...]
        ├─login───bash───bash───xinit─┬─X
        │                             └─fvwm─┬─FvwmCommandS
        │                                    ├─FvwmPager
        │                                    ├─bwstat
[...]


In this example, you can see modules (bwstat isn't a fvwm module) that
have been started by fvwm. Perhaps your button-thingy shows up.

If you can't find it, it might help to have a screenshot so we can see
exactly what you're looking at.  And what does something like 'ps xca |
grep -i fvwm' tell you?

If this thing is started automatically, it might be through fvwms
"startup" functions:


AddToFunc StartFunction
#+ I Module FvwmCommandS
#+ I Module FvwmAnimate
#+ I Module FvwmBanner
#+ I Module FvwmButtons
+ I Module FvwmPager
#+I Module  FvwmIconMan
#+ I Module FvwmIconBox


AddToFunc InitFunction
+ I exec xsetroot -solid $[csbasecolor]


These two functions are described in the man page.

BTW, either IconMan or IconBox are deprecated --- I don't remember which
one.
