    My SZ160 came with a small icon on the system tray that looks like an upsidedown sliped triange. Its the Intel Pro wireless s/w. If I right click on it, it will give me the option of "Letting Windows manage the wireless settings", or "letting Intel Pro manage the wireless settings." On the 160 I am using the latter.

    However, on my SZ90, there is no such system tray icon, nor related software installed.

    Does anybody know what this specific s/w is called, so that I can install it.

    Many thanks, z.
