How to fix computer issue.?

My computer is running windows xp .

Its gonna be used for my art projects

I ran antivirus on it and it found none.

It quarantined it but when i power the system off it says "turn of heavy rocker" . That's not normal windows xp saying when turn off . So does this mean my antivirus didn't catch it. Should i hook it up to my network anyway? This is not a troll question. I just don't know if its safe to hook to my network to upload my art or not?

Update:

It found one! not none sorry.

    Not because it's not supported doesn't mean it's not secure. It also doesn't mean it's bad. XP lives!

    It's possible your antivirus caught it but the effects weren't reversed. Hopefully it's just the message (sort of like vandalism). You can search for how to restore XP shutdown screen or messages. If it really annoys you, you can reinstall XP (and all other programs) from scratch.

    Get rid of XP! It's totally not secure these days with no support!
