How can I remove the Mac protector icons? I finally deleted that program but I cannot throw away the icons?

Hi, I have a little problem. I downloaded a malware called Mac Protector, for my fault, and now I finally have deleted that program but I cannot throw away the relative icons (in my display). How can I do?
