USB thumb drive pulled and icon left on desktop - how do I remove it??

[Jay Ridgley]

Folks,

Yes, I know, I did it wrong...

I did a backup to a thumb drive I had inserted in a USB port. After the 
backup task completed and without thinking clearly, I simply pulled the 
drive out; now the icon that indicates the 4.1 GB Media is mounted 
remains. I have tried to unmount the drive that doesn't work and move it 
to trash and that did not work either.

If I put the drive back in a new icon pops up and I can unmount it and 
that one goes away. The other one just hangs around...

Short of logging out and back in (I am not sure that will work either, 
since a user swap left it) or restarting my system how do I  go about 
removing this critter?

Cheers,
Jay
