Dell Wireless WLAN Card Utility icon is not in the notification area.

I've seen one other post about this, but since it was a while ago I can't reply on that post.

 

While here's the problem, the utility icon is gone.  The utility is still installed, and I can use it.  I've checked and unchecked the Show utility icon check box on the Wireless Networks tab.  It does nothing.  Don't know why but the icon just disappears and the only why I've found is to reinstall the drivers.  I'm using a Dell Wireless 1350(b/g)WLAN miniPCI Card, on Windows XP pro SP2.  I don't want to keep reinstalling the drivers to get the utility icon back.  Does anyone know a way to fix this problem?
