Watching for network activity
Well in Vista this icon is present by default in the system tray (in XP you had to enable it on the properties sheet for your connection) but it doesn’t blink or do anything. Maybe that’s because some users find it annoying to see blinking lights out of the corner of their eye when they’re working on their computer.
But you can enable this indicator of network activity in Vista, simply right-click on the icon and select Turn On Activity Animation, and now you have an indicator you can watch to help you diagnose problems when network connectivity seems to be down.
