How To Disable Windows Firewall Alert In Taskbar ?

I did do some research for help, but I am still unclear . . . .

I have Zone Alarm, Antivir, and Super Antispyware running. The red shield accompanying firewall warning are on my taskbar, despite having Zone Alarm activated. The first question related specifically to the firewall status warning:

Does disabling the alert disable the Windows Defender?

Second, how to I disable the Firewall warning without disabling Defender? I don't want to manually disable the warning at every boot.

Thanks for any help.

 

Open Control Center and click on Security Center. In the left pane select "Change the way Security center alerts me". You have a window that opens and you can select or unselect the three components individually.

 

Thank you sir!

 

I'm a ma'am and I'll take the thanks.

 

Thank you ma'am! What is the feminine version of Geek!?
