This morning when I got logged on, I have noticed that I have some sort of an PC icon with a red cross on it down at the bottom - but I have opened Google Chrome and the internet works fine, do you know why?

I'm going to show you the image that I have to my related problem - would you think an Windows Startup will solve this problem?

Does the PC also have a wireless internet connection? Reboot and see if the wired connection is still shown as not activated.

Thats why you still have internet - check the wired connection from the PC to the router.
