From the RUN box type: sfc /scannow Have your XP CD handy

 

okay i ran it and for some reason the scan took about 1 second is that correct? Never did that before. Anyways it didn't fix anything.

 

Do you have TweakUI installed? I don't see it in my version but apparently others have had this prob. Open TweakUI in Taskbar & Start menu - if show taskbar notification icons is unchecked, check it.
