I did what you suggested, rebooted and I'm still getting the alert.
The one thing I did before this alert started was yesterday; I installed
Kodak EasyShare software. Today after starting my computer (when the alert
came up for the first time) I used Revo Uninstaller to remove this software.
I don't see what this could have to do with anything but I was informed that
EasyShare causes all sorts of problems and I thought this might be it. But
after removal and reboot the alert was still there.
