For this go to "start->run" and enter "regedit" and search the keys listed below. You can create one dword value "antivirusdisablenotify", if this value is not existing. Now you can set this value to "1" for disabling the anti-virus scanner warning of the security center. After a restart the changes take effect. When editing the registry it is highly recommended to run a quick scan for optimization, you can test your system now for free.
