    Where's my system tray?

    When I booted up my computer all of my icons for my system tray, the notification tray on the bottom right side by my clock, are gone. Except the clock. It's still there. Tried everything eveybody told me to do. No go. Still gone. And believe me it was a lot. Anyway I went to my registry and found the following:

    HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\She llServiceObjectDelayLoad (this was on the left side)
    On the right side it says "sys tray"

    Does this mean that my system tray is being delayed starting up and being timed out thus not appearing on my system tray. Please help me. I don't know if this happening this way or something else is wrong.

    No matter. I need help. Any help will be much appreciated.

    Thanks,
    rthilliard

    Broni,
    The e-mail You sent to fix my system tray icons dod the trick. I already had Avast ant-virus for some time. It works great. The other thing you told me was download ( http://www.superantispyware.com/definitions.html.) & ( http://www.malwarebytes.org/mbam.php ) and run them. I did and superantispyware took a lot of but when I ran malware and re-booted the icons were back. I can't believe it. Thank you so very much. You have been a big help. I know I will never be able to help you like that but if I can let me know. Again thanks.

    Sincerily,
    Richard Hilliard

    Often an infection appears to be gone on surface, but bad guys may be still hiding in the background.

    I strongly recommend....
