- No:10649 *he file wscntfy.exe is not a virus if it is located in your systems folder. It is designed to give you warnings in your toolbar about your own system security and this will appear as a red shield in the bottom right hand corner next to your clock. Dont get this mixed up with malware as this is not it is just designed to inform you of your current system security if it is under threat, such as having windows updates turned off. If you do have windows updates turned off because you are running a pirated version and do not want to recieve these alerts, go controlpanel securitycenter changealerts

- No:10648 *It's an insult to your intelligence to have that icon sit there and bug you when you have deliberately disabled firewall or autoupdates, and a chore finding out how to disable the alert. If you were driving a car, this would be like somebody telling you every 5 seconds that your headlights are on.

- No:10647 *If u have your own antivirus and firewall, this is just wasting system resources, so turn it off

- No:10646 *Since i got sp2 it slowed down my system by a lot and it does lag everytime, whenever i try to open any program my comp would just sti there for a few mins and then open it. i think this is totally not worth it. I have no idea why microsoft did even release this piece of crap.

- No:10645 *Comes with sp2 and is part of the security center. Not needed UNLESS you use windows firewall or similar services, 3rd party security software does not rely on it

- No:10644 "wscntfy.exe" is the Windows Security Center Notify Application, introduced in Windows XP Service Pack 2. It displays a tray icon indicating the status of Windows updates, virus protection, and firewall.
wscntfy.exe can be disabled by going to "Services" and disabling Security Center (this is not recommented).
This service doesn't exists in Windows Vista or Windows 7! In this case "wscntfy.exe" could be the Rivarts trojan.
Note: The wscntfy.exe file is located in the folder C:\Windows\System32. In other cases, wscntfy.exe is a virus, spyware, trojan or worm!
