For the past 8 months or so I've been unable to locate the internet connection icon for my wireless internet. I am using a USB adaptor Linksys WUSB600N but when everything was first installed a year ago everything was ok. Since then I have uninstalled and reinstalled the adaptor a few times and have also done some other editing of network preferences and now my icon for my wireless internet connection has gone away on both the system tray and in network connections menu. I have tried Microsoft's troubleshooting for Missing Icons top to bottom with no avail:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/825826When I have the 3rd party Linksys control panel control my adaptor I can connect to the internet just fine without problems. However I have the option to switch control over to the XP Wireless Zero Configuration utility and when I do that I loose internet connection.
So maybe with messing with some of the preferences I had accidentally deleted some files? I'm not sure, hopefully someone can help out.
I also have run numerous virus scans and malware scans with Adaware, Spybot, and Avast! All have come back negative.
I can update with more information as needed, thank you.
