On August 10th I installed sp2 on a desktop and a laptop
that I am using Sygate Firewall. I have told security
Center that I have a firewall and tried unchecking
firewall in change the way Security Center alerts me and
unchecking both at the same time. It still pops up every
second or third boot on both machines. This is not really
a problem. I am just wondering if I am missing something.
Thanks,
Sammy Castagna

No, you're probably not. I have Sygate on all my Windows boxes and don't
have your problem, but there have been posts where Security Center
won't remember how you set it. I would first try updating the Sygate
firewall if you haven't lately. There is a new free version, and it
solved some network issues for me (unrelated to SP2). If you already
have the latest version and/or that doesn't work, you can always
disable the Security Center in services.msc.

Malke,
I have the latest 5.5 2710 it is no big deal just makes it
slower to load seems like and something else in the system
tray. I will check out the services.msc

Thanks Sammy Castagna
