    Hi and Welcome to Major Geeks. Either I or someone else should be able to correct your issue. :)

    What OS are ye running?

    I'm assuming XP:

    Is there a small "<" next to the clock? If so, can you press it, then will they show?

    Also, follow this link:

    Hi

    Could you post a screenshot of what your describing as its a little contradictive of sorts? Kinda hard to visulize what your seening when we are not infront of your PC, and a picture is worth a 1000 words ;)

    Sounds like a rendering issue. theres been a few issues with certain xp skins making icons invisible. Are you using windowblinds ?

    Sometimes this can occur if the system tray isn't available when creating the icons. DOes it happen all the time (every time you turn your computer on) or is this just a one off. Have you tried rebooting explorer ?
