I have winXP sp2. It's a dell 4700. What's happening lately is that my taskbar at the bottom of the desktop does'nt always show the running progams I choose to have on my taskbar. I have gone into Taskbar properties and done the appropriate checking and adjusting. To no avail. I have 5 progs. I used to have show next to my clock on theTB. Now it's onlt two. Once in awhiile for no reason it will show the ones that are suppossed to be there and then Voila..gone again. Any suggestions. I have had a virus and trojan scan..Nada.
Thanx I did what you suggested. Sometimes the icons appear in the task bar and again, sometimes not. Would the fact that i have webshots running there as well make any difference? I have taken it off startups but it seems to appear again.
Your computer will run much better if you stop all unnecessary stuff from running. Run a selective start-up with only items needed for your system to run. A web-shot? You need this there? Get rid of it. If you need to bookmark a website put it in your favorites list.
Your right and I will. thanx I have Mcaffee, MS Beta Antispyware, Dell support, Win Patrol & Roboform running at startup,+ whatever other hidden processes there are. Too much??
