I have WD set to place an icon in the system tray --- but it's not there.
Does anyone know what the reason might be?

That can be a convoluted solution, but take a look at these archives to see
if that helps you resolve the issue:

Hmm. From what I'm reading at the link below, this is the same problem I've
had with the sound icon not showing up until I log out of my user account
and then log back into it. It's a long -time bug in XP (and it was in 98 as
well) that MS obviously thinks isn't high enough priority to repair. And I
doubt we'll ever get it repaired now that they're going to stop selling and
supporting what I consider to be the most stable of the Windows programs.
Thanks. I feel better now knowing that it's most likely that little XP
glitch doing it.

OK, I was wondering if it had been fixed in XP SP3 or if it was still a
problem there, but it sounds like you're there. I see there are also Vista
icon display problems. To me that indicates upward compatibility across
the product line. ;o(

I did a restart this evening, and the icon is back - I wish that MS would
fix that little glitch. It's very aggravating.

I doubt that your WD's icon going AWOL is a WD issue, it's more likely a
binThere4ever defect in XP.
Before you go rushing off to up/side/down-grade to Vista I should inform you
that Vista Business (vanilla and SP1) running on a Tosh Portege 500 inherits
the same defect, my best friend shelled out $AU3.5K of her hard-earned on the
box, when this problem manifested she wasn't a happy camper.
Unbelievable, someone in Seattle is asleep at the wheel, IMO it aint Unclue
Bill or Ray OzeeAintAnAussie, but a one Steve BullInAchinaShoppe.
If its not fixed in Win7 (my assumption is that if it wasn't fixable in XP,
and it's been inherited by Vista, then it won't get fixed in Vista) then the
planet should reject Win7. No one should give their time to beta testing it,
no one should upgrade to it, no one should buy a computer that has Win7 on it
- i.e. a consumer strike.
Man who says it cannot be done, should not interrupt man doing it. -
