Does something happen when you click on these labels?

It might be called something "button". I take it you already searched
for "icon"? "swallow" might also be a promising search string.
The output of pstree (or similar tools) might be helpful:
[...]
├─login───bash───bash───xinit─┬─X
│ └─fvwm─┬─FvwmCommandS
│ ├─FvwmPager
│ ├─bwstat
[...]
In this example, you can see modules (bwstat isn't a fvwm module) that
have been started by fvwm. Perhaps your button-thingy shows up.
If you can't find it, it might help to have a screenshot so we can see
exactly what you're looking at. And what does something like 'ps xca |
grep -i fvwm' tell you?
If this thing is started automatically, it might be through fvwms
"startup" functions:
AddToFunc StartFunction
#+ I Module FvwmCommandS
#+ I Module FvwmAnimate
#+ I Module FvwmBanner
#+ I Module FvwmButtons
+ I Module FvwmPager
#+I Module FvwmIconMan
#+ I Module FvwmIconBox
AddToFunc InitFunction
+ I exec xsetroot -solid $[csbasecolor]
These two functions are described in the man page.
BTW, either IconMan or IconBox are deprecated --- I don't remember which
one.
