Thread: Unidentified Icon in Notification Area?

Just lately a novel icon appeared in the notification area as well as I can't get clear of it or even get out what it is. If you drift over the icon, there is no pop up message saying what it is. Left as well as right click don't do something at all. I've looked in the customize icons Section but it is just listed as "<no title>".

The icon looks like two figures in front of a small window, with the windows guard at the front. I've tried to fix a screen shot of it. It's the second one from the left.

It appears shortly after starting up the laptop plus then won't go. I've got an ACER Aspire 5735, running Vista Home Basic. Is there a way to recognize the items in the notification area?

Many thanks in advance for your opinion.

That icon is for Parental Controls.

It looks like Wds live Messenger update ...."Waiting to set up.."

Have you tried to run Wds Auto=up date ....see if it shows up..?

If it’s a program you should notice it in "Task-bar & Start-up menu". Write down the name.so you can delete (Uninstall) it: Make use of this: Revo Uninstaller to cancel it out.

Thanks Priscilla. That's what it is. How come it doesn't state what it is or permit you to click on it?

Thanks though. Stopped me wondering.

Are you in a normal account that this icon is like this with?

I'm signed in as administrator account (is that what you suggest?). I haven't looked to notice if it shows when signed in on my daughters account. I'll have a glance tonight.
