Download and run this script...
Restore Taskbar to Default Functionality (Line 164)

... then reboot for the changes to take effect.

Do you happen to have Norton Utilities System Optimizer installed? If so, make sure Start menu --> Turn off System Tray CleanUp isn't checked. If that doesn't apply to you... Start | Run | Type regedit, and click OK | Expand the following branch:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER | Software | Microsoft | Windows | CurrentVersion | Policies | Explorer
In the RH pane look for the following values, and if present delete them (right click each value and select Delete)...
NoAutoTrayNotify
NoTrayItemsDisplay
Again expand this next branch and perform a Delete to the same values as above...
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE | Software | Microsoft | Windows | CurrentVersion | Policies | Explorer
You'll need to logoff and re-login for the changes to take effect.
