Sven, there used to be an icon on my system tray that was to "safely remove hardware" (for scanner & Sony card reader), but it has disappeared. Is there a way to find it and get it back? -Ann Fennell

Hello Frances,
It would help us to know your operating system and type of connection
(dial-up, type of broadband, etc.). Try this: Go to Control Panel and look
for Network Connections (XP), Network and Dial-up Connections, or the
equivalent, and open it. Right click the icon for your connection and select
"Properties". The properties window should open at the General tab. At the
bottom, there should be a box with the option to "Show icon in notification
area when connected" or "Show icon in taskbar when connected". Check the box
and click "OK".
While you're there you can place a shortcut in your Quick Launch bar. Right
click on and hold the connection icon, drag it to the Quick Launch bar and
release the hold. In the menu that pops up select "Create Shortcut(s) here".
This shortcut can be used to connect or disconnect should you lose the icon
in the System Tray again.

I need help- I have lost my icon to connect to the internet. The 2 little
connected computers just disappeared. How do I get them back ? To connect
to the internet now I have to hook up to Outlook Express and go from there.
When I get off the internet, I have to shut down. Thanks for any help.
