Fix for missing XP tray Icons.

[Pavel]

I have found fix for the missing XP tray Icons on the home page of
Tech-pro.net. The solution worked for me just fine as suggested on the web
site which was to disable the UPNP using the provided reg file UPNPOFF.REG.
But that got me thinking that it must be something that does this other then
UPNP and I found the actual culprit. This is really dumb but it worked. Open
My Network Placers and click on the "Hide icon for networked UPnP devices"
located in the Network Task area of this window. If there is "Show icons for
networked devices" in this location instead then the problem must be
someplace else.

Hi Pavel,

Thanks and old news on the edit (see
http://www.kellys-korner-xp.com/xp_tweaks.htm) as for having the hide icon
for UPnP, no such animal on any of my systems here. From which particulars
can this be observed?

Hi Pavel,

I clearly understood the places to look. ) Just looking for more
particulars as in the make/model perhaps of the card, etc. I have never
seen these options via any system that has ever come in here running XP Pro,
Home or MCE.
