Hi

These red circle icons with the white exclamation point are called 'Status Icons'  and are found in the following products. The following websites show the red exclamation point status icons with a description of how they are used.

 

Symantec System Center antivirus (also other Symantec products)

Mozy Online Backup.

Some McAfee products also use the Mozy software for online backup that will display these status icons. There may be other products that also use these icons.

 

If this is a Mozy issue, you can get rid of the "red circle with a white exclamatiom mark" icon extras by going into Mozy's Configuration, then disabling Icon overlay.
