Question from feel_n_learn: How do i get rid of this warning on Windows XP Pro?
Security Warning on Windows XP Pro. The current web page is trying to open a site in your trusted sites list?
Do you want to allow this? That is what pops up after almost every page i go to online, i just reformatted this and is already quite annoying. How do i turn this option off?

Open Internet Explorer

Click the “Sites” button
In the Websites box, you will have some sites listed. Just select those and click the Remove button.
Please note that if these are listed with some purpose, then it may not work as intended!!!
try using Firefox browser
This is due to the Zone Elevation Blocks implemented by default in Windows XP Service Pack 2. If a user clicks a link which causes the Web site to attempt to navigate to a higher zone, the above message appears. Navigation from one zone to a “higher” zone is blocked. This means that Web pages that automatically call more privileged Web pages fail. Also note that the navigation is blocked to the Local Machine, silently.
To disable this restriction for the Local machine Zone, see article http://windowsxp.mvps.org/ie/elevlocalfile.htm
