Customize notification icons settings lost after a few hours.

[ceed]

Hi,

I have a feeling I am customizing notification icons several times a
day. A couple of hours after I have done it an icon which I have set to
"always show" is gone, and when I check it's set back to "Hide when
inactive". It's never the other way around, it's always the "always
show" setting which gets lost.

Does anyone here know why this happens?

Can you be more specific on which apps are doing this? Is all of them or is
it a specific application in the bar?

For instance, some applications "refresh" in the notification area and Vista
seems to see this as a new application and setting the view to default.

A specific example is some security software like Norton, the icon will
"refresh" and reset to hide when inactive.
