["Tony Cretney" <rac@xxxxxxxx>]

Hi Jim

I am also running  Windows XP with Service Pack 2, and I get the same 
message at start up. I am also running a Sygate firewall and have been told 
that this message can safely be ignored.  I usually just click on the cross 
at eth top right hand corner of the balloon which appears as the bottom of 
the screen and it goes away.  You may also get a similar message up to tell 
you that you do not have any virus protection.

It appears that Windows only recognizes Microsoft firewall and virus 
protection.  If you are using anything else it will give you this message at 
start up.  It does say no the Security information that Windows XP does not 
recognise all firewalls and virus scanners.
