Funny you asked that. Same thing happened to me and I have had years of experience and have never seen this s before.
If you are re a beginner, why are you running XP?
Is it a wireless connection?
Is the red X only on the lower right task bar?
Look at this:

It says my wireless is out, but it still works.

I'm running windows 7,yes its on a wireless connection and also in the lower right taskbar.strange everything works though.just thought it may be a potential problem with an easy fix.

hey! Did you try built in windows troubleshoot. The window that pops up after a failed connection should give you an option to auto trouble shoot. You can take the steps that windows does mannually but it take a bit of command line syntax. Reply and i can walk you through it. Also resetting you router can help as the a clean config of router settings will normally result. these are just simple things and im not sure what you mean by everything is running fine. best luck
