It was interesting to see that so many other people have had the problem of icons
missing form the system tray, which seemed to occur with me when I installed SP2.
The solution mentioned before of logging off and then logging back on works for me
and it really takes less time then going back and bringing up the individual icons
one wants, particularly if many of them are missing. Some og the other solutions
mentioned did not work with my computer. For example, I downloaded and ran systray.reg.
Not only did I still have missing icons, but my monitor display was altered in a
way that does not usually happen. I also tried deleting setupapi.dll from the windows-system
32 folder, but XP wouldn’t let me delete the file.
