Open File - Security Warning

[Vista Frustrations]

I get this annoying warning when I open and .exe file. The warning gives me
the option to deselect the 'always ask when opeing this file', but it
reappears the next time I open the file and the warning is reselected even
though I already deselected it. The warning has a help link on the bottom '
how can I decide what software to run' and all the help links talk about is
downloading which has nothing to do with this warning dialog box. How do I
get rid of this annoying security warning on this file. If I go to
properties for the file, there is an unblock option which I select and apply,
but it too reappears the next time I open the file properties.

Disable the prompt.

I disabled the prompt as shown, but it still shows up. I uncheck the always
ask box in the warning dialogue box, but it still shows up and with the
always ask checked.

Not sure what else to say, these functions do not seem to be working
properly to me, but then that can probably be said about the whole operating
system.

Are you saying you made the changes to your registry and you're sill getting
the UAC prompts?

If you have, restart your PC and see if that disables the prompts?

To remove those annoying security warnings you must follow these easy
steps -

1- Open in the windows explorer "C:\Users\Public\Public Desktop"

2- Remember the names of the programs or files you want to remove the
security warning (I recommend using notepad because it's easier to
remember that way)

3- Delete all the program shortcuts from the desktop

4- Open the Program Files folder on My Computer

5- With the names you wrote down in notepad search the application in
the Program Files folder

6- Copy the program or file and in your desktop right click and select
"Paste Shortcut"

7- After you pasted all the programs on the desktop open the
"C:\Users\Public\Public Desktop" folder and paste all of them in the
desktop.

8- You will now see that you have the program copied twice on the
desktop, open them both and delete or send to the recycle bin the one
which pops up the security warning (Note* This would *_NOT_* delete the
program or application)

9- Try opening the program or file and see if it works. If it doesn't
work redo the steps again.

Enjoy!

I don't get no security warnings - what am I missing out on please?
