Chevron is missing: For some users, setting the very first icon to Always
Hide, restores the arrow.
Icons are missing or disappear, reappear: This generally happens for most
Auto-Logon users.
Methods/workarounds: Log off and Log back on, password protect your account
or disable SSDP and uPNP Services.

Or if you are running XP SP1 uninstall UPnP from Add/Remove Windows
Components.

Remove Past Items From the Notification Area (Line 53)

Once done, Open Task Manager, click the Processes tab, click Explorer.exe,
and then click End Process. In Task Manager, click File, click New Task,
type explorer, and then click OK.
Classic Theme and Notification Area:
If you are using the Windows Classic theme in Windows XP, the icons in the
notification area on the right side of the taskbar may disappear when you
select a High Contrast scheme in the Color Schemes box on the Appearance
tab.
To work around this problem, right-click a blank area of the taskbar, and
then click Lock the Taskbar. Or, change the size of the taskbar, and then
restore it.
Volume Control disappears in the Notification Area:

To use the Regedit: Save the REG File to your hard disk. Double click it and
answer yes to the import prompt. REG files can be viewed in Notepad by right
clicking on the file and selecting Edit.
