This is probably the bug with updating icon-less apps (e.g. calendar feed) through the store.

If you've got developer mode enabled you can clear it up by deleting the offending file in /usr/share/applications/installer-extra, otherwise it should be fixed in the next firmware update.
At a push, someone (possibly me) could also rustle up a tiny app to kill these phantom icons.

Any idea of fixing these.. I got 7 already and it's quite annoying!

..6 now. I didn't do anything with the phone.

Gotcha! Deleted 'em via /usr/share... BUT What!? They keep spawning back like goblins in rpg's. What the heck?

do you have apps for meego installed as well as the testing repository?
try uninstalling both of them.

if it still doesn't work could you post all the apps you've installed maybe one of us could point out the offending app.
