Under turn systems icons on or off, the setting for Network is Off and greyed out so it cannot be turned on. Doesn't change if I have all the icons showing or in the popup window.

In the select which icons menu I have network set to show the icon and notifications.

The icon was there last night but today is gone.

I have the latest release of Classic Shell installed, but that's never bothered the notification icons.

No help here http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/19085-system-icons-enable-disable.html

HideSCANetwork is not found in the Registry.

No help here either Programmers BLOG: SYSTEM ICON PROBLEM No instances of cannot repair in the log and sfc /scannow finished with Windows Resource Protection did not find any integrity violations.

Finally found a fix.

Colin Cochrane | Windows Vista Disappearing System Tray Icons Fix

"HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\Local Settings\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion \TrayNotify"

Delete the values "IconStreams" and "PastIconsStream"

Use Task Manager to end and relaunch explorer.exe and all the icons are back.
