I have two Earthlink icons in the Dock I am unable to remove. They have question marks on them, and I can't drag them out of the Dock. I believe that the Earthlink app was uninstalled, but these icons remain. Can someone tell me how to delete them permanently? Thanks. images/icons/confused.gif

Is your dock on the bottom, left or right? Are you using X.1 or X.2?
One thing that worked for me with a few stubborn items in the dock was to pin the dock to the bottom (I normally have it on the left) and drag them out.

You might have to log in as administrator or root, if that's who you were when you installed them.
