I am having this same problem with a win XP Pro laptop.
Sometimes when I boot it shows all/most of the icons in
the systray (notification area) usually only the network,
norton and my firewall (norton). I really miss having my
battery show there so I can see how much time I have left
on this charge. The icons show up in "past items" on the
tool bar properties.
