Hyperlink Warning

[Guest]

Everyone may have already seen this, but I just ran into the "Hyperlinks may
be harmful to you computer...." warning poping up in the middle of my
presentation when I created a hyperlink and an action button.

Below is the link to the instructions on how to turn off this warning on
your computer.

Hi

I have used the little program that Sonia suggest before opening a web
published presentation but when I click on an link to open an external
powerpoint presentation the warning message came back . I guess that the
problem as mentioned in the last part of the Microsoft Knowledge Base
Article - 829072 is due to:

"...This additional warning message comes from HLINK.dll when link
navigation is handled. You can differentiate the Microsoft Office hyperlink
warning message from the HLINK warning message by looking for quotation marks
around the file path in the warning message. The Office message contains
quotation marks, the HLINK message does not. The warning message tries to
determine if the file type itself is unsafe by checking the extension,
progid, classid, and mime type of the document"
