Windows XP has a built in security center that monitors the activities or existence of Automatic Updates, Windows Firewall and virus protection provided by third party anti virus software.

When one or more security component do not been installed, or been disabled or turned off, or not working, Windows Security Center will highlight the section in yellow or red for warning and critical attention. Security Center service will also pop up a warning message with red or yellow icon that your computer might be at risk at notification area (system tray).

My problem was an install from windows update the often gets corrupted, xml4. Whenever I shut down my computer, Windows said it is installingupdate 1 of 1. It toggled between the message of “Installingupdate 1 of 1″ and a don’t turn off the computer, it would shut down by itself. But it will stay on that until I force shut down, and still be there whenever I want to restart or shutdown. If this is you:

1. Disable automatic updates > more on that
2. Download “msxml4-KB936181-enu.exe” from the Microsoft site, not Windows Update.
3. Run the program > Remove
4. Reboot
5. Run the program again > Install
6. Turn on Automatic Updates. I left automatic updates OFF, but the problem should be fixed so you shouldn’t have to.
