Howto: Enable/Disable Security Center Alerts on XP

[BASSEMANSE]

Hey man, when i click " Change the way security center alerts me" then alert settings don't pop up.

What is popping up, is a small window that need a safety password, or a window who want's me to buy a firewall or whatever, what do i do?

@BriannaBlog

This will NOT stop the hackers!

You must have "Firewall" and "Antivirus" programs. To be protected from hackers!
