re: what abt the Friday, September 23, 2005 at 12:47 pm Windows XP Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by Judy (2 messages posted) Well, I seemed to have fixed it. I got tired of always doing the workaround, so restored my computer to an earlier time (a few days earlier), then uninstalled both the McAfee virus scan and Adaware. Restarted my computer. Everything was fine, all icons there, etc. Then I reinstalled McAfee & Adaware, restarted, and everything was normal. All icons showed up like they were supposed to. I restarted over and over and never lost the icons from the taskbar. On Thursday, September 22, 2005 at 7:55 pm, Judy wrote: >I've had the problem with the icons disappearing from the task bar.
