[gui-talk] FW: [nfbcs] Adjustment of Notification Area Icons Under Windows 7

[David Goldfield]

Hmmm. I've never encountered this issue with an abbreviated notification 
dialog. However, I'm wondering if the user account privileges have been 
lowered. If it were me, I'd try running the program under an account 
with administrator access to see if more options become available.
