Please check this thread: http://forum.amule.org/index.php?topic=17160.15. Unfortunately - as you may see - the problem is a rather old one.
Since the GUI is not locked anymore it could theoretically be fixed. Fact is that it needs some investigation why and when this actually happens.

Yes, there's a chance that this will be fixed soon (tm). If there's an update I will post it here.

Can you perhaps verify some of the behaviour posted in the other topic?
Also a description of your software environment (OS, theme, Window Manager) would help.

I've made the test in the tread, (try to change band limits) and also disable/enagle tray icon, but nothing changed.

anyway I'm using the current snapshot of ArchLinux 64bit with Gnome 2.30 and the Ambiance theme (from ubuntu)

If you need other information please tell me, thanks.

Guys, news:

it's a bug with Ambience on Archlinux, maybe because of a git version of murrine I don't know:

Are you sure? Does it look ok with other themes on Arch?

Just watched the video, but I have to say that I perfectly understood it the first place. ;)
I am about to compile the newest SVN version and will get back to you as soon as I know more.

Bad news. I tried different things to avoid the icon's transparent parts getting messed up and none of them worked.
Not even transparent PNGs avoid the bug and so I believe that it's related to how wxWidgets draws the icon.

Currently there is one last thing I would like to try: compile FileZilla (also uses wxTaskBarIcon), give it our icon and check whether it gets messed up. I am almost completely sure it will. :-\

EDIT:
Same goes for FileZilla. The icon has a wrong background in the taskbar but looks OK in the toolbar. All icons are loaded the same way inside the code. :(
The FileZilla crew avoided the taskbar issue by using a square icon that has no transparency. :D

I've also looked up some "how-they-did-it" in FileZilla some tima ago and noticed how carefully they skate around wx's deficiencies.  :)
