What makes them disappear ? by t-4-2[_98_]
I lost my Network nd Volume icons from the Notification area. I went the right click on taskbar routine, and found out the boxes were unchecked and greyed out. I got them back via system restore. What I'd like to know is what caused that? The only significant activity was installing the new version of CCleaner, and then I ran it. That's it, no other programs installed. -- t-4-2

Permissions control by Paul Phillips
I have a problem with the connection between my mobile phone and my laptop (Vista OS). The phone manufacturer has told me to change the Permissions to Allow for Full Control. (I imagine he´s talking about Everyone.) But I get an error message saying that the change is not allowed. What am I doing wrong? Thanks.

Is it something to do with the jumpers (I have tried every combination recognised in teh...

Prior to upgrading Norton my Vista Defrag tool worked fine no problem and always on schedule. After the upgrade to Norton, I was setting up the program and the defrag tool in Norton said "pending" which I left alone, because I was comfortable using the native defrag utility. However,...
