Firewall notification pop up

[Martin]

Hi

Every time I start my computer I get a popup saying "Your
Computer may be at risk, Your firewall status is unknown"

I have McAfee firewall installed and its a drag havong to
check the box saying "I have a firewall solution and will
monitor myself" Is there some way this box could remain
checked so I dont have the security warning popup every
time I reboot?

Many thanks
Martin

Martin, in the security center change the settings for how the security
center alerts for the firewall. If that doesn't stick when you reboot,
and it wasn't for me, then edit the registry.

Create a new entry under

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Security Center
DWORD Value FirewallDisableNotify
Value 1
