icons in system tray have wrong image !

[Dave Porter]

Hi Everyone,

A few days ago my Volume control Icon got the wrong icon ( it had the same image as another program
in my system tray.

Then in the last couple of days my internet security icon also had this wrong image...

So now three icons in the system tray all have the same image !

How to fix ?

Go to C:\Users\*your name*\AppData\Local and delete the iconcache.


Reboot! The icon cache will be rebuilt.

Try a couple of Kelly's fixes:

Line 4. Repairs the Icon View
Line 121. Increase Icon Cache

She has many more icon fixes, but these are the two you need.
