I have Windows XP Professional SP2 not in a domain. It used to be but isn't
now. The XP firewall is disabled there is no anti-virus on the machine
and Automatic Updates is set to notify only. The Security Center icon
continues to appear in the notification area and I cannot seem to stop that
from happening. Somethimes when I double-click that icon the appearing
Window is showning that the Firewall is on, but when I go to the Security
Center to turn it off it is still off. When I close out of that Window and
again double-click the Security Center icon in the system tray it will show
it is off but the icon never goes away in the system tray. Is there
something I can do to keep that Security Center icon from appearing in the
notification area? Thanks.
