    Disable SP2 security alert = start/settings/control panel/security center/in the resources click - "change the way security center alerts me "/uncheck white small boxes and click ok

    Make sure network/internet connection is not set to alert you in case of poor connection.

    I have Windows XP on my computer. Can anyone tell me specifically how to avoid getting the balloon screens that sporadically pop up from the taskbar. Thank you.
