IE 7 security prompts when opening programs ??

[JM]

We have two true client/server applications at the office. The shortcuts on
our desktops are directly to the executable on the server. After installing
IE7, we are prompted with the security warning every time we open the
program. I have gone into the security settings and tried to change any
that have to do allowing programs to download, run, etc, but obviously I'm
missing something.

Have I given enough info?

Thank you,

jm

Can you post the exact warning that you are receiving per verbatim.

Posters with issues related to IE7 are asked to post to the internet
explorer newsgroup.

It is an active group so so peruse the posts for something on topic before
posting a new message.

This is a common problem. IE7 seems to change the security settings so
that computers on the local intranet no longer come under the "local
intranet" security zone.
