I am unable to get the internet connection status Icon to show up in my
system tray any more. I have right clicked on my internet connection icon in
Network Places and choose Status but it never shows up. Also when I close IE
it no longer disconnects although I have set the dialup connection to auto
disconnect when closing IE. The strange part is if I close IE and then go to
the Internet connection Icon the only option it gives me is to Connect but if
I pick up my phone I can see that I am still connected to the internet so I
have to reboot the pc to drop the connection....any help would be great.
Thanks.
