Menu Bar doesn't appear. Sound Icon becomes grey.

Well you should run disk utility from your install DVD and under utilities drop down menu. Repair Disk. See if this helps. Won't hurt to repair permissions if you haven't or don't after system upgrades.

If no help could be corrupt plist try deleting com.apple.systemuiserver.plist

found here:

usenamer/Library/Preferences/ com.apple.systemuiserver.plist

then open terminal.app and copy & paste the command:

killall SystemUIServer

and return. This command will kill the process and automatically rebuild the menu bar.

Hopefully problem solved clearing out old cache.

This is a bug in OSx that comes and goes since 10.6.0. Not to worry, just click on the menubar and it will return.

Agree. I have it too. But seems to have become rarer since 10.6.6.

BTW, Luciano, no need to post in caps and bold. It will be read if you don't. In fact, makes it's distracting.
