There are supposedly a couple of ways to get rid of it. However, one of them results in the icon coming back when you reboot; the other, when the content gets pushed back to your device. The best way, thus far, is just to hide the icon, but that doesn't fix the default search engine in your browser.

I believe it, especially the bit about trying so hard to make it catchy in the office. Bing installed a shortcut for itself on my Blackberry, free of any request or confirmation to do so...I just noticed it one day because all icons downstream of it were moved. Can't figure out how to delete it either.
