Roland, PC Magazine used to have a freebie for win 98 that was called TrayManager 
that was supposed to restore the tray icons/shell in the event of a crash. I have 
it installed on my xp --i still have shell crashes, some worse than others 

-- ctrl+alt+del restores my shell now to enable a proper reboot.

with win98 you could try a repair -- you need your win98 disk -- cant remember much 
more  -think it is done thru add/delete function of control panel

Pc Mag do not have freebies anymore -- think they want $20/year for their little 
gems now
