Symptoms
After you start the computer, one or more of the icons that should be
present in the system tray (notification area) of the Taskbar are often
missing.
Cause
The cause of this problem is not known, but it's almost certainly a bug in
Windows XP.
Solution
There is no known solution, but there are workarounds that may reduce the
frequency of this annoying occurrence.
I have found a solution to this problem. It requires adding two registry
keys. The first key points to systray.exe and named "SystemTray" in the
system32 folder with the command to run in the startup folder for all users.
The second key points to the systray.exe in the system32 folder with the
command to run in the registry for all all users. The easy way to add these
keys is to have startup manager utiltiy to edit/add startup/registry/win.ini
commands.
