There are bugs in your application: You set the trayicon icon to the form 
background, instead of the form icon. You open a popup menu in the MouseDown 
event, whereas you must use the Menu event. But this allowed me to fix a bug.

Anyway, the vertical 1 pixel width appears when displaying a QT tray icon in 
the Gnome notification area. Any other combination seems to work (gb.qt/KDE, 
gb.gtk/Gnome and gb.gtk/KDE). This needs some investigation...
