XP Pro? There's a policy for hiding it, but that wouldn't explain how it would change after an update.
run gpedit.msc
User Configuration->Admin templates->Start menu & taskbar->Hide the notification area
I believe it operates on two registry items but no worry if you have pro.
Nothing certain but something to check.
