Please help me identify this mod

I have a mod which puts up a 5x8 grid in raid. The grid is of your raid members, and if you click on them, it gives you their target. The target status is displayed with strange symbols such as a bandage, a hand, and one that looks like a pacman. This grid is stuck in the upper left hand corner of the screen and wont move, and persists after I turn off Grid. I have perfect targets as well, but there seems to be no option there to turn it off. Do any of you know which mod this is?

Get VisorGUI and open the option window, then press and drag the focus button onto the frame and it will show the name of it.

Alternatively, just hold your mouse it over and type the following:

/script DEFAULT_CHAT_FRAME:AddMessage(GetMouseFocus():GetName())

Except without the extra space in the GetName part (Blame vBulletin)

Try the code tags:

/script DEFAULT_CHAT_FRAME:AddMessage(GetMouseFocus():GetName())

What better cc is there for a druid than polymorph?

I've had that happen to me too. I _think_ it's related to bananabars - do you use it for marking mobs in raids?

You can definitely turn it off as I found out what was causing it and disabled that part of the mod.

Edit:
http://www.wowace.com/wiki/BananaBar2
BananaBar2 is an addon that provides:

* a set of customizable buttons to do a lot of different things with raid symbols

* a panel with 40 different buttons that show informational icon about your raid.

Sound familiar?

As above poster states, it's very likely Bananabar2, which has two sets of frames - a set of raid targeting icons, and then the grid, which represents what everyone in your raid is targeting.

I believe white hand is targeting a friendly, orange hand is (an unmarked) hostile, the pacman symbol as you call it I *think* is the pacman ghost? - yeah, it's for ghost players. There's also a tombstone for dead, unreleased players.

It's excellent for, say, putting triangle on the assist target, and then seeing who doesn't have triangle in their box (ie., is not assisting properly)

Cool suggestion on the script. I bet it is banannabar2. I use it a lot for 5mans, but have yet to use the raid functionality. Thank you all for the helpful advice.
