What are the steps required to make the two computers icon visible? (I used to have them show whenever I used my modem. I was able to click on it to show the speed and it would flash on and off to show activity.)

XP could also be hiding it from you.

Click on the task bar properties.
Do you have "Hide inactive icons" checked?
Also click on "customize" and see if it's listed as "hidden" there.
