As part of my new shiny, I've been installing latest drivers and software...
Now one thing I've been getting really annoyed with Vista is the "Open File - Security Warning" dialog box.
There is nothing wrong with it as such, just when I click the "don't ask this again" check box to true, I'd expect it to NOT ask me again!
Anyway, I did some hunting and found this gem, thanks Jimmy Brush...
Now that's all very good if you have one or two files asking me this question, but I had a few more!
So I created this for ya'll...
It's just a bat file that will ask you for it... I'd like to have added a link to it, but hey you know what theses nasty .bat files can do... So for transparance here it is in full naked glory... Enjoy
