I have been following the advice from Windows Secrets Newsletter regarding dumping Windows Update and using alternatives (the recommended Shavlik’s NetChkPro is installed but giving me problems, will have to check with them for support). When I checked my system, I am happy to say the WGA Notification Tool was not installed on my main computer. I still have two other systems to check on, but I was wondering….
I do have the WGA Validation Tool installed on my system, does this also pose any threat as the Notification Tool does and if so, how do you remove it?
My system has Windows XP Home SP2 installed with a 2.0 GHz AMD Athlon processor on a ASUS mobo with 1 GB RAM
Thanks for any help
