It means that one of the services that you are monitoring in the monitor service is not on
Eg you are monitoring the smtp service - but you have it set to start as manual - so when the computer starts it will set the alarm off until it is started. A slightly more social way to see what is going on would be to either set it so that it notifies you via mail or you go to the webadmin screens http://localhost:8181 and see the status of the monitored services there - both should be a bit more informative and a bit less annoying than just having a claxon blaring at you.

Thanks for the speedy reply Pat. I'll do as you suggest. But I'm a bit wary - presumably the alarm is going off for a reason...
