Hmm ok.. I have bluelight as my ISP. I also wanted the
connection status thingy to show. Heres how i got mine to
show.

Start.. Control Panel... Network Connections..
Right click on your connection.. Mine is Spinway so
would right click it.. properties.
Place a check in "show icon in notification area when
connected" then click OK.
After you connect.. You should see a icon with 2 monitors
showing your connection. Note: It doesnt show til you
connect and will be near your clock :-) hope that helps
