Network Icons Do Not Work

Hi Folks: A little background behind this. . . . I'm running Windows 2000 Professional, with Mozilla Firefox/Thunderbird v1. 0. There is absolutely no trace of IE on my system. I used IE Eradicator to rid of it.

Hi Folks:
 
A little background behind this....
 
I'm running Windows 2000 Professional, with Mozilla Firefox/Thunderbird v1.0. There is absolutely no trace of IE on my system. I used IE Eradicator to rid of it. So I realize fully that I have an unsupported configuration. 8)
 
Ever since, whenever I disable/enable a network adapter, it still shows the same status (it does not refresh the icons to reflect whether the card is indeed enabled or disabled....though it does do it's function, as I can verify in device manager.)
 
Alternately, if I change the properties to display the systray icon whenever the network card is connected, it will not run it. (By that, I mean you won't see the two blinky-blink computers near the bottom-right hand corner of the screen.)
 
So what important file would I have de-registered or deleted with IE Eradicator, to make my LAN adapter tools not work? Otherwise my system runs great....and faster too!
 
Cheers,
Jody

OP
My apologies and I will abide by the rules, however I do know some readers only post on certain forums, so I wanted a wide range of responses, since this is time sensitive.
 
May I then re-post on WinNT/2K Networking please. And you could delete this if you want. Let me know at your convenience.
 
Cheers,
