I wouldn't sweat that.  This one keeps popping up and nagging the
dickens out of me during long sessions.

        My system has a message every time I boot up such as this.  What
I was told is happening is the message is up because the firewall or
whatever component it is speaking of is loading up.  So the firewall is
indeed on but the system can't keep up.  then as soon as it finishes
loading the balloon goes away. It is annoying but I don't think there is
anything you can do about it.

                Turning off all help balloons would probably be
overkill, but I can tell you one I'd love to address.  Are there any
other XP users bothered by constant reminders that your firewall is
turned off?  I can verify that my firewall is on.  I'm told to click the
balloon to fix this problem--lotsa luck.  By the time JFW reads it, the
balloon has disappeared, or is about to.  You'd have to have the fastest
mouse in the west to click this thing,while the clicking's good--and
that presumes you know where to find it.  How can I convince this fool
system that its firewall is indeed on?
                 
                If you wish, you can reply off list to tlisle@xxxxxxxx,
as I realize this one is marginal, at best.

                        Hello Dave,

                         

                        If it's not asking too much, Can I get that file
too?

                        If so, here is my address.

                        mailto:bachelder3@xxxxxxxxxxx

                        If they still pop up, contact me off list and I
will send you a file that will turn off help balloons in the registry.

                         

                        Regards,

                        Dave

                                Hi Stacey,

                                If I have my facts in order here is the
solution.

                                 

                                1. Go into control panel.

                                 

                                2. Hit F to find folder options and hit
enter.

                                 

                                3. Go to the view tab.

                                 

                                4. Tab down until you are in a tree
view. On my system it is 2 times.

                                 

                                5. Go to the last item which should be
"show pop up description for folder and desktop items" and make sure it
is set to off.

                                 

                                6. Hit enter on apply and then on ok.

                                 

                                HTH

                                 

                                rich
