Security center won't go away!

[Guest]

How do I get my security center icon to go away? Its red all the time, since
I can't get an anti-virus program to run.

1) i turned off the universal account control. A terrible feature.
2) any recs on a functional anti-virus program?

choose to monitor it yourself, there should be a button for that in the
security panel
