How can I fix this? Is the message something to worry about?
I changed the twarnmsg.exe file name so it would stop popping up.
It specifically says a problem with the cooling system has been detected, please turn off and return immediately for service.
Intel Celeron M Processor 2.8Ghz
XP Home SP2
AVG and Norton Internet Security seems to be taking up a lot of resources as per the task list. The CPU usage has been running at 100% lately.

BOO HOO!!!. The CPU is still running at 100%. I have not even installed any 3rd party software yet. Do you think this something I really need to worry about? I think I read somewhere on this forum that someone had the same issue and they were okay.

Celeron processors have lower cache than Pentium. thats can be reason that it run on 100%. But if it run always on 100% its not ok. chek it in "task manager" wich application utilize processor.

indeed, check the task manager, click 'processes'
now look at which process uses the most 'cpu' ) e.g. if it says CPU 06, it uses 6% of your cpu.

Well, different processes tend to run up the usage at different times. At this particular moment, they are
svchost.exe
and
update.exe
I will keep you posted.

AVG and Norton IS? Two anti-viruses installed at the same time will "fight" each other because they see the other A/V as a potential threat because they are so deeply embedded in the OS. This can lead to 100% processor usage. Try taking one of them off and see what happens.

This AVG is for malware, not viruses.
