I had a problem this AM when I took my Vista 64 Home Premium notebook out
of sleep -- the network icon was missing from the notification area and the
checkbox which should have turned it on was grayed out. I searched the KB
and found a solution (KB9450011) which got the icon back. The problem is
that _all_ of the icons are showing up in the notification area and despite
"hide inactive icons" being checked none of them ever goes away now. I have
unchecked, applied, rechecked, applied, rebooted, several times. Same
result. Ring any bells?
On another odd, note, searching in the support KB is acting beyond weird. I
found the previously-mentioned KB article one time. But it now refuses to
come back using the same search terms. Ditto when I search for "hide
inactive icons"; sometimes a few half-hearted results comes up but most
often nothing at all shows. Is the KB database suffering issues this morning?
