Yesterday, I installed my Lexmark Z515 printer with the cd. Today, I restarted my mac, and I got a warning message saying something like this...

There was a Security problem with the program "LexSleeper" that is in your startup folder.

Then I had 3 choices, One was Fix, one was Decide Later, or End. I clicked on fix, and my printer seems to be working just fine, but what the heck was that? I have never seen that before, should I delete that folder from my startup folder? Anyone know?

Edit: Sorry for such a lack of an error message, I can't remember everything after doing my Calc 2 homework.
 
Same problem

Yeah, I get that. Every time I boot or restart, I get that dialog box... I took a screenshot and it says:
An item in the Startup Items folder ("/Library/StartupItems/LexSleeperX.app") does not have the proper security settings.
Using this item may cause problems. If you trust this item and want to fix the security settings, click Fix. To always prevent this item from being used, click Disable. To skip using this item and show this message again, click Decide Later.

Then I have a help "?" button, "Decide Later", a large space, "Disable", and "Fix".

Does anyone know what it means? Is this program safe, or should it be deleted? Can it be deleted safely?
 
I was baffled when I got the same mysterious popup this morning. But it is definately related to the Lexmark x1130 driver i installed yesterday. So I would definately presume that it is same...

But very strange...
