All others who used this solution and did not get the desired result might have included the quotation marks in the beginning and at the end. If the quotation marks are not included, this solution works perfectly. All kudos to Patrick!!! Patrick’s solution works.

The registry key has the same name but a different location under XP. Search for it, then get rid of it. Then reboot. THE ICON CAME BACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Try this HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\Local Settings\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\TrayNotify delete the two keys in there in vista. then reboot. sorted.
