XP/ME network

[James Wettje]

I have a windows ME box and an XP bow running together on a network. I have
my DSL connection on the XP computer, sharing the connection, basically
using the XP as a gateway to the net. I am well protected with anti-virus
and Keiro 4.1 firewall. If works fine for my purposes. It just has one
annoying problem. On the ME machine there is an icon in the system tray for
the residential gateway device. Every 10 minutes or so a bubble appears over
it that says "new devices available on the network click the icon on the
desktop to view them". It doesn't go away until I click on it. How do I make
it stop appearing??? Not a big problem but annoying.

Thanks
