MS Security Essentials 4.5.216 and Windows XP

There is a "windows update" for MS Security Essentials to version 4.5.216. If you are running Windows XP and apply this update, you will see an ORANGE icon in your Notification Area (bottom right). It does not go away, no matter what you do. This is just a warning to let you know (and not forget) that Windows XP support is ending in April -- and your computer is not secure.
