Open Download application from app launcher and delete that download file in progress.
This should get rid of download icon.

Try clearing your browser cache from app manager in settings.

Uninstall Gmail. See if that gets rid of the icon.
Of course after that you can reinstall.
Edit : If you can't Uninstall then clear Gmail cache and reboot phone.

Back up your data and factory reset from settings. No need to root.
This should surely get rid of that icon.

Don't worry about the apps as they will be restored when you sign in to your Google account after first boot. Just backup pics and other important files from internal memory to a PC or external sd if you have one installed.
