Not since I last used it. But I had to keep it plugged in for 3-4 days 
straight for the message to finally disappear. This showed up in the 
sys-tray on the Acer laptop. It was sluggish in booting up though and it 
became very hot.

It worked fine for about a week before this happened and the anti virus 
program on the desktop same as for the laptop said it needed updating. This 
program is not blind friendly. A sighted person updated the anti virus 
program and I'm thinking accidently flipped the switch on the bottom of the 
laptop house currant because I had used it on battery power. Or it could 
have just ran down and thus the message...
