The icon selection code needs some clean up.  Especially, it's not
easy to disable icon pictures completely.  There are two
possibilities:
 1) Explicitly set the Icon style of every application that annoys
    you:
      Style mozilla Icon non_existing_icon.xpm
      Style emacs Icon non_existing_icon.xpm
 2) Make a completely transparent xpm icon that is 1 pixel high
    and as wide as you like the icon titles to be displayed, then
    set
      Style ** my_icon.xpm
      Style * IconOverride
    To be safe, do this near the top of your .fvwm2rc and never
    issue another "Style * Icon" or "Style ** Icon" style again.
    They seem to interfere with each other, depending on the
    styles that were set in between.
