Refresh arrow doesn't disappear when clicked in views

The blue refresh arrow in the top left corner of view does not go away, even after clicking on it and refreshing view.
What might be causing this? I've checked view and db properties and there doesn't seem to be anything set to cause this.
 
The most likely reason for this is that the view is being sorted using a column that refers to the current date or time. Given that Notes will continually need to recalculate the column, the index will never be "Up-to-date". If this is the problem, you could try replacing the calculated column with a field that was calculated and saved on the form.
 
Just a note, and I'm not sure about this, but this is what I've heard:
Try not to use any Date/Time fields in views. As NotesDesigner mentioned, it needs to be continually recalculated- and this is not just when it's open. I hear the server ends up having to have to recalculate it all the time. This can tax the server's processing, and give it more work then it really needs.

Please, if someone else knows of this information to be incorrect, please let me know. Thanks.
