This is a throwback to the fact you have the webrep toolbar installed in IE, since IE is so deeply embedded into your OS it is showing up here, but you can't display it on your desktop as it only works in the Browser.

I see it on my computer also. It would be nice if it could be in the taskbar area right next to the avast icon  :P

Even if it could be displayed in the windows taskbar area, what purpose would it serve as it is an integrated browser add-on/toolbar. It has no settings, it has no input unless a browser is running and can only display the results in the browser..

doesn't surprise me, when I tested web rep, I saw (and reported it here btw) web rep offered as a toolbar in explorer... selecting it had no effect of course. As said that's due to IE integration in Windows.
