...eh? I'd be wondering just how it got there in the first place seeing how its usually only enabled on pre-release versions...
Anyway, TweakUI (part of the Windows Xp Power Toys has an option to disable it or at least, it used to. I haven't used it in such a long time (not since I used NT4 4 years ago) so I can't be sure if the latest versions include it or not.

Two solutions:
You can use xp PowerToys, in TweakUI, General, Last Option.
Or,
I can mail you a .reg file that does it for you, provided you give me your e-mail adress...
Ps: did you install WMP9 ?

Thanks, TweakUI did not work, but I already found the setting to turn it off.
Consider up[censored] to a "final" release of XP perhaps.....

Mr.Guvernment, CheekyMonkey said he's found the right setting already, may I say your post was useless ?

You should really uninstall the beta builds first (i.e. gets rid of the testing message) and then install the final release.
However, the testing message can be removed by deleting the following keys: -
"HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\SystemCertificates\CA\Certificates\FEE449EE0E3965A5246F000E87FDE2A065FD89D4"
"HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\SystemCertificates\ROOT\Certificates\2BD63D28D7BCD0E251195AEB519243C13142EBC3"
--Cynan.
