Why not use the excellent Microsoft Antispyware program (used to be Giant Antispyware). It has a "real-time" scanner as part of the package.

If you bought youre version of windows in the store , disc or no disc it should still pas authenticity. If not then they are selling illegle versions of windows.

I believe if you report that to MS and still have proof of purchase that MS will give you a free legit XP disc/lisence.

Maybe , i dont think MS has disabled youre firewall because it is apperantly not a legit windows , but maybe there is something wrong with the version that store is using.
