What are the icons on the right side of the gadget for?
Vista Sidebar: On each gadget, on the top right hand corner when you mouse over the gadget for more than a second, appear three tiny icons. The top icon is an X and will close the gadget if clicked. The second is a spanner icon that will pop open the settings panel for the gadget (which can also be accessed by right-clicking the gadget and selecting “Options”) and the last is a drag panel. The drag panel exists in case the gadget itself is not draggable, clicking and dragging on this tiny panel will allow you to move the gadget anywhere on the sidebar or your desktop.
