Maybe it came from the Loco Roco demo that ran on 2.7fw.

I don't know the specifics of how it hides the icons so I can't tell you how.

na. the loco demo has the data.psp signed so it does not need to use the exploit :)

The __SCE__ trick for hiding corrupt icons has been around for a lot longer than loco roco ;)

I'd guess it was likely found through reverse engineering the VSH, but I dunno for sure. I wouldn't be surprised if sony's rootkit debacle gave whoever found it the idea to look for that string, as sony seems to have a habit about things.
