Comment: I keep getting this message: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v146/Stu.B/msg.jpg I then open it, and tick the box saying 'I have a firewall that I will monitor myself'. But it constantly keeps coming up!
Is there anyway of getting rid of this crap? So annoying. btw I have Win XP and sp2. Radeon 9800 Pro 128Mb

Reply: (edit)You'd probably be better off just disabling the alerts and leaving security center running. Start > Programs > Accessories > System Tools > Security Center > "Change the way Security Center alerts me" > uncheck all three boxes.
