Icons in system tray

[Ellen]

I have XP.
I need the icon (two screens) in the system tray that
tells me that I am online and I cannot find where to turn
it on.
Start>Control Panel>Internet and Networking> Now What??
Can you help?

Try this...Control Panel>Network and Internet Connections>Network
Connections. Right-click your connection and click Properties. Check the box
next to "Show icon in notification area when connected". Click OK.
