I installed Comodo Firewall today, and when I restarted, I noticed that several items aren’t showing up in my system tray. For example, the volume control. Is there a way to delay the startup?
This may ormay not be related to CPF. There is a known bug in XP where occassionally system trsy icons don’t show up. Do a search on Microsofts support site for “missing system tray icons”. There are several suggestions and fixes for it.
