That notification box is really bugging…and the icon with a red armor with a X seems really odd at the taskbar’s tray!
Security alerts are good but they become no-good when you want to ignore the alerts. Especially, when you’re on a PC with pirated Windows, and most of the pirated windows can’t do automatic updates..so there’ll always be a notification in the taskbar’s tray reminding you that the updates are off, and you can’t really help it out.
Then…
- Go to “Security Center”.
- Look on the left pane for “Change the way Security Center alerts me”.
- In XP, uncheck all of them and in Vista, choose the appropriate option.
- That’s it you’ve dumped that notification…
IMPORTANT of you are seeing a red shield with a white “X” on the front, it is a WINDOWS SECURITY ALERT VIRUS, it is in no way associated with windows security centre and is malicious. Here is a link with tips on how to remove this. http://www.fasterpccleanclean.com/remove-windows-security-alert
