Lost icons in bottom of screen
Hi, I hope you can help me! I have lost the wireless icons that used to
appear in the bottom right of the screen, next to the clock! I had some malware that I have now got rid of but no matter how much I search around to try and restore them they have gone missing. Also, on the start menu I used to have a 'connect to' option that would let me choose what wireless to connect to. This has also disappeared! Please help! |

Notgoodwithlaptops had this to say: My reply is at the bottom of your sent message: Hi, I hope you can help me!

Is your Wi-Fi card still listed under Device Manager? (Rational place to start as any I suppose...) WinKey + Pause Break (you may need to hit the F Lock key on some keyboards first) Hardware tab Device Manager button Look under Network Adapters It MAY be that you've killed your WinSock? If so then take a peek he Malware Cleaning: http://kgiii.info/windows/all/general/malwarefix.html Just to be sure - under your network settings for that device - do you have it set to show the device if it's connected AND to notify you when it has limited or no connectivity? -- Galen - MS MVP - Windows (Shell/User & IE) http://dts-l.org/ "My life is spent in one long effort to escape from the commonplaces of existence." - Sherlock Holmes |
