WIN XP Home Edition - Put in a new hard drive on my PC; reloaded everything; all seems to be working well except every time I start up, the balloon message tells me my firewall is off -- even though I set it for on; next time, same thing. Also, I turned off the Error Report Service but when I go back and check it the next time, it's turned itself back on. A gremlin here, or is WIN XP merely offended at me? Any suggestions? Thanks!

Check for the presence of malware with a good antivirus product (not any of the free ones - they miss too many viruses even when they're up to date. The only exception is Comodo Antivirus, that's definitley okay because I use it. have been using it for six years with no symptoms of infections whatsoever).
