Hello.

I have Win XP and I recently installed Service Pack 2 on a few of my
computers. After I installed SP2 it kept telling me that my computer may not
be protected which is caused by my not allowing Norton Autoprotect to run in
the background. I have set the Security Center to not monitor my Antivirus
status or else it will pop up each time I start my PC. However, on two of my
systems, I set the Security center to not monitor my firewall or Antivirus
status and each time I restart the Security center always pops back up and
tells me that my system may not be protected. I don't know why it is doing
this.
Also, on some systems it shows that my Antivirus program is active when I
don't even have it running in the background (and I'm sure of this).

Can anyone tell me how I can resolve this issue? Thanks,

Tavis
