Neat.
general manson:
None of the detections that you are getting are false positives. They all indicate unusual settings within the Windows OS that may or may not be a problem depending if you intentionally altered default settings or chose to allow certain security products to alter those settings.
The following detection:
Indicates that the ability of Windows Security Center to monitor the status of your anti-virus has been turned off. Windows Security Center can monitor the status of the most widely used AntiVirus products (such as Ahnlab, ComputerAssociates, Kaspersky, McAfeeAnti, Panda, Sophos, Symantec, Trend, etc.). With this indicator disabled Windows Security Center will not monitor if your AntiVirus has been disabled or is out of date. If you go into Start > Control Panel > Security Center > look at the right hand side of the window and check the settings under "Virus Protection" (expand if necessary). I believe that you have overridden the protections and that you will find a button labeled "Recommendations". If you click on the "Recommendations" button I believe that you will get a window that indicates something like:Code:Windows Security Center.AntiVirusOverride: Settings (Registry change, nothing done) HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Security Center\AntiVirusOverride!=dword:0
- I have an antivirus program that I'll monitor myself.
Note: Windows won't monitor your virus protection status and won't send you alerts if it is off or out of date.
These detections:
Go into Start > Control Panel > Security Center > Resources (on the left hand side of the window – expand if necessary) > click "Change the way Security Center alerts me". This brings up an "Alert Setting" window.Code:Windows Security Center.AntiVirusDisableNotify: Settings (Registry change, nothing done) HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Security Center\AntiVirusDisableNotify!=dword:0 Windows Security Center.FirewallDisableNotify: Settings (Registry change, nothing done) HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Security Center\FirewallDisableNotify!=dword:0
There are three possible alerts:I believe that you will find the first and third alerts turned off. Note: Certain security products (notably McAfee and Norton) will turn off these alerts if you optionally set them to this alert function of the Windows Security Center.
- Firewall
Alert me if my computer might be at risk because of my firewall settings- Automatic Updates
Alert me if my computer might be at risk because of my Automatic Updates settings- Virus Protection
Alert me if my computer might be at risk because of my virus protection software settings
This detection:
Indicates that you are allowing HTML coded wall paper on your system.Code:Windows.ActiveDesktop: User settings (Registry change, nothing done) HKEY_USERS\S-1-5-21-117609710-1958367476-725345543-1003\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\ActiveDesktop\NoHTMLWallPaper!=W=1
The items under ActiveDesktop are supposed to be a dword:
- 0 = no restriction
- 1 = enable restriction
NoHTMLWallPaper = only allow bitmaps (BMP) as wallpaper
See the following article for a more complete description of ActiveDesktop registry entries:
- Active Desktop Restrictions
http://www.winguides.com/registry/display.php/443/
If you did not intentionally set that registry value to allow HTMLWallPaper than you should fix the detection.
This detection:
See the following thread:Code:Windows.Security.InternetExplorer: Settings (Registry change, nothing done) HKEY_USERS\S-1-5-21-117609710-1958367476-725345543-1003\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main\FeatureControl\FEATURE_LOCALMACHINE_LOCKDOWN\iexplore.exe!=W=1

For the security center for the first 2 parts you put on or lost I have this problem. As for the others I'll ignore. (I think but not sure)
The security center is currently unavailable because the security center service has not started or was stopped. Please close this window and restart the computer (or start the security center service) and then open the security center again.
Not sure when this started but is there a fix for this? Might have deleted something from the registry that could have caused this but cant remember like WSVC or soemthing like that.
To start Windows Security Center:
- Go to Start > Run > type: services.msc > OK.
- In the right pane, scroll down until you see Security Center.
- Right click on Security Center and choose Properties.
- Change the Startup type from Disabled to Automatic.
- Click Apply.
- Under Services Status click on the Start button.
- Close Services.

I have a problem. I dont see Security center listed. The only thing closet to that, that I see is Security Accounts.
Are you running Windows XP SP2?
Go into Windows Explorer > Help > About Windows. What does the line after Microsoft © Windows read?
- Version x.x (Build …………..)
