Are you sure?

I have XPSP3 and it does work.
Did it stop working right after you upgraded it?

Nope

Windows XP SP3 works just fine. I use it daily. And so do hundreds of thousands of others. So, it's something wrong with your specific PC. And if it can't create the shell icon, I'd be willing to wager that you don't have a tray and are probably using an alternate Windows shell.

Reboot, Close

Reboot and close down everything optional (including all the cruft in the tray) and try again. Something is preventing it. Maybe a software firewall or something?
