Default XP SP2 and Bluetooth

I have just installed a new Linksys Bluetooth USB adapter and it does not
seem to be working when I click on the icon in the bottom right corner I get
the error "Bluetooth device not found", I've updated to the latest drivers
from Linksys and have done some googling to see what the error might be and
it seems to be a problem with SP2 can anyone help me resolve this?

I clicked on the link
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=883259
and saw the following under Workaround:

"Right-click the Bluetooth icon in the notification area"
Where do I find the notification area?
