After setting up a new system and downloading all the new
Windows XP updates(Windows XP SP1), etc., I no longer get
popup notifications from Windows, McAfee, et. al.
Although I hear the audible alert, a pop noise, no
balloon appears. Any idea how to restore this? I sure
would like to be notified when there is a new virus or
Windows update.
 
Are they hidden behind the Taskbar? Are you using Auto-Hide? Two totally
separate issues.....

What are your settings here: Windows Explorer/Tools/Folder
Options/View/Advanced/Popup Descriptions for Folder and Desktop Items.

Are you using TweakUI, if so:
