Re: Missing IE Icon



This is getting out of hand and a bit too hard to follow for an 80 year old
So I would like to end it
As I said before I'm happy with what I'm doing without using 'newsgroups'

Thanks Robert,
Worked fine.
I have no idea how ‘Show icon in Notification Area ‘ became unchecked.

Start | Settings | Network Connections | Right-click on the connection
type
(e.g., Local Area Connection) | Properties | Show icon in Notification
Area
when connected (check).

Sorry, it is the 'Network Connection icon' is the one I'm reffering

Thanks for the reply re Read and rate..."
I thought my computer may have been at fault.

An IE icon has never been found or placed in Notification Area
(systray)
in
any Windows version. Are you perhaps referring to a Network
Connection
icon (looks like a TV screen or perhaps 2 TV screens if using
dial-up)?

Links found in "Read and rate..." notification emails haven't worked
properly for many users since January, so the problem's not on your
end.

Thanks for answering Robert,
Yes.
The one where the time is displayed, bottom right of screen.
I tried to find out how to restore this icon by going to, Start/Help
and
Support, but all I could find referred to Windows 98.
ie.
1. Open the Dial-up Networking folder. In Windows 98, you can access
this
folder from My
Computer on the desktop. In Windows Millennium Edition (Me), you can
access
the Dial-up Networkin
folder from Control Panel.
2. On the Connections menu, click Settings.
3. Click to select the Show an icon on the taskbar after connected
check
box.
4. Click OK to close the Dial-up Networking Settings window.
To disable the Dial-up Networking Connection icon in the system
tray,
use
the steps in this section,
but click to clear the Show an icon on the taskbar after connected
check
box
that is mentioned in step 3.

Another question I submitted before, but got no response to was,
re Read and Rate this response in the Notify email I received.

When I clicked on 'Read and rate the response; it takes me to this
address.

this page is a blank page with 'Done' in lower left of screen

Are you referring to the Notification Area (AKA systray), to the
immediate
left of the clock?

I have noticed that the Internet Explorer icon does now, not show
in
the
System tray.
How do I get it back?
