Avg quad color icon DOES NOT appear in system tray

The avg install went off sucessfully but when I power on the laptop each morning the quad colored avg icon does not appear in the system tray on startup.  
There is an avgui.exe entry in my msconfg start up but like i said it not does appear in system tray

Re-intslled avg but to no avail.  Yes i can click the avg icon on my desktop to open the UI of the program but this is not silent!
