Usually you will get the warning because you're running active content
from the local file system, which belongs to the "My Computer" Zone in
Internet Explorer. Turning off the warnings isn't a good idea because
one day it might save you from accidentally running code that exploits
a vulnerability in IE or one of it's components.

If you want to turn it off you can follow the following Microsoft KB
article to enable "My Computer" Zone to appear in IE's Security
Settings tab. From there you can disable the warning by setting the
relevant option to "Enable" instead of "Prompt".

I think a better idea would be to set up a local web server (and if
you're security conscious, don't have it listen on any external
interfaces). The site will then run in the context of the "Intranet"
Zone which you can easily configure the security settings for, and
won't leave you open to exploits via the "My Computer" Zone.

Sorry for the long winded answer, just thought I'd try to provide some
backgruond info :)

P.S. The article doesn't mention that the change is compatible with IE
7, but I would assume that it will still work.

cheers,
Justin
