When I boot up, I get a dialog box that has this:
Shell_NotifyIcon NIM_ADD failed
Anyone have any idea what this is?
Thanks In Advance,
Vito

Some program that's loading at startup is trying to initialize a System Tray
icon, and is failing to do so. Click Start, Run and enter MSCONFIG Go to
the Startup tab and uncheck the startup items until you find the problem
program.
