notification area of taskbar

[brett]

when I load windows, the notification area of the taskbar
is missing the norton antivirus, windows messenger, and
two internet icons. Later, they will appear (after a few
minutes). But until then, IE won't open and nothing
works properly. How do I fix this?

Hello!
Icons are missing or disappear, reappear: This generally
happens for most Auto-Logon users.

Methods/workarounds: Log off and Log back on, password
protect your account or disable SSDP and uPNP Services.

Or if you are running XP SP1 uninstall UPnP from Add/Remove
Windows Components.
