    Hi! I need someone who can help me.
    I am using Lifebook 7211 runing on winxp with acronis boot selector.
    Recently I have a problem when I boot-up my lifebook- the icon with a "A" padlock keeps blinking on the notification bar and the system will not start.

    I did not install any such software and baffled how did it activate itself.

    Can some kindly advised how I can removed this annoying thing.

    Thank-you
    Steve
