Add the Volume Control to the Taskbar
In every version of Windows I have used since Windows 95, I have always used the 'Volume Control' applet in the notification area (formerly known as the 'Task Tray') to control the volume of my speakers. In Microsoft's infinite wisdom they have remove this item from this area in Windows XP, but I am going to show you how to add it back.

The above method works. Problem is that everytime I download Windows Updates or Antivirus Updates ZAP! Volume Control gone again!!!
Isn't there a permanent fix for assigning icons to the task bar once and forever???
