Can Vista learn unidentified programs?

[ceed]

Hi,

I have a few programs that every time I want to run then I have to allow
them since Vista says they are unidentified programs. How do I teach Vista
to trust them so I can open them without getting this question every time?

Hello,

Are these just .exe files downloaded from the internet ? If so, right click on the .exe and select
properties. Click on the button titled 'unblock'.

Yes, they are .exe files I have downloaded. I have right clicked on the exe
and opened the properties, but I can for the life of me not find a button
titled "unblock". There are several tabs there, but no "unblock" under any
of them. What am I missing?

The 'unblock' button is towards the bottom of the 'general' tab. What is the exact text of dialog
box that you get when you try to run the exe files ?
