If this is an MSI package you need to install with verbose logging and when the dialog show up look in the end of the log file and see which custom action or launch condition is triggering the message box.

I would be SERIOUSLY questioning why you are using a client which is untested on an 8-year old operating system...

Does the vendor not have an up-to-date version?

im guessing the vendor is just being retarded.

vpn client version 5 sounds like one of the latest to me, last one i did was 4.6 which wasn't too far back now. perhaps just a dodgy msi to start with.

im guessing the vendor is just being retarded....particularly as they don't seem to be acquainted with such things as testing and Quality Control...my "AVOID, AVOID" alarm is ringing like crazy, almost in sync with my "IRONY, IRONY" warning lamp.

Kimaster, seriously, Kim (AngelD) has the right advice. It's a simple matter to find the CA or LC which is triggering that message box and edit it out. As with all vendor-supplied MSI, don't edit the MSI directly - use a transform.
