Its the toolbar - the very first thing I disabled when moving to emacs 21. 

There are a number of ways to disable it

1. In your .Xresources i.e. Emacs.toolBar: 0
2. put (tool-bar-mode -1) in your .emacs
3. Use customize to disable the mode

,----[ C-h f tool-bar-mode RET ]
| tool-bar-mode is an interactive compiled Lisp function in `tool-bar.el'.
| It is bound to  <menu-bar> <options> <showhide> <showhide-tool-bar> .
| (tool-bar-mode &optional arg)
| 
| Toggle use of the tool bar.
| With numeric arg, display the tool bar if and only if arg is positive.
| 
| See `tool-bar-add-item' and `tool-bar-add-item-from-menu' for
| conveniently adding tool bar items.
