Wow. Why would you do the above when all you need to do is click on
"change how Security Center alerts me"? That's a rhetorical question,
actually. There is absolutely no reason to go through such a convoluted
mess as what you've written above when a simple, easy, and safe method
will do the job. Also please note that you assumed the OP had XP Pro. XP
