System Tray Icon

[Carlos]

Hey, my taskbar icon for Microsoft Anti-Spyware appears in
the system tray for a few days (like it should) after I
install it, but after that, no matter what I do it
disappears and I can't get it to come back, is a pain in
the arse. I've tried the 'show icon in system tray' button
and restarting it a few times, but nothing changes. I
uninstalled it then reinstalled it, and it reappeared for a
while, but has disappeared again. Why does it disappear,
and how can I get it to stay?
Cheers
Carlos

This feature appears to be broken. An update install will usually bring it
back, but it tends to go away again. I just noticed mine is back on today's
boot, and I'm unaware of changing anything that would have that effect. It
may relate to whether the icon was showing on shutdown, or the phases of the
moon, or...

control panel, add or remove programs, Microsoft Antispyware, change,
update.

I have the same problem. I'm pretty sure it's gcasServ
that needs to be starting in HKLM along with gcasDTServ.
For me, it's gcasServ that always gets deleted.
