This is something installed by the manufacturer of your computer not a
Windows feature.
Before you spend too much time figuring out how to "get it to go away" I'd
inspect/test the recovery disc(s) you made when first prompted to make sure
the process completed properly and that you have a way to recover your
computer.
Usually when a manufacturer provides this method of creating recovery media
it's a 'one shot deal' and once successfully completed is no longer
available.
That you're still getting the message makes me suspicious that your recovery
media was not completed. Should that prove to be the case and you are
successful in "getting it to go away" you may find yourself in a bind if you
need to perform a disaster recovery on your computer.
If it turns out to just be a glitch and your recovery media is good contact
manufacturers support or at the very least post back with the make and model
of the computer in hopes of finding someone who has experienced the same
thing.
