XP Firewall Message

[ET]

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.customize (More info?)

I have XP service pack 2 and I have turned the windows xp firewall off as my
dsl has a firewall. Now I keep getting messages warning me that the
firewall is turned off, how do I get rid of these messages. Thanks.

Open Control Panel/ Security Center. Click the link "Change the way security
center alerts me" link. Remove the check mark from the Firewall option.
