Use another browser and quit downloading stuff with Internet Explorer. Or use a file download manager like Getright or something. Those are the only ways I've found. I'm just about ready to switch to Mozilla Firefox. I really like the latest version .
I'm afraid you're going to have to get used to that ".NET garbage." I resisted it at first too, but I'm seeing more and more apps that require it to be installed before they will work.

How do you disable Authenticode in XP SP2? I'm PAST the point of being FED UP with every file I try to open giving me this BS about "do you want to run this file?" cr*p. YES, I want to run it, if I wouldn't have, I WOULD NOT HAVE CLICKED IT! I'm sick of having to click every file twice instead of once to read it. It happens with .exe's, .reg, .vbs, etc. etc. M$ and their continuous unrelenting nagging prompts can go to hell. FYI, http://blogs.msdn.com/tonyschr/archive/2004/03/21/93430.aspx . My dialog box doesn't look like that, I don't have all those buttons. All I have is "Run", "Cancel", and of course when I keep UNCHECKING the @[EMAIL PROTECTED]&! box for "Always ask before opening this file", that evidently only works for THAT file! As usual, a search on this also gives no results AT ALL. Not a single hit on how to "disable authenticode". I even went so far as to add "My Computer" to the Internet Zones, allowing EVERYTHING in its zone, and setting everything to "Enable". Didn't work. I even checked all the boxes in Internet Options regarding running active content on the PC. Also didn't work. In other searches for "disable authenticode" with NO quotes, I see that .NET may have to be installed to disable it, and I'm not installing that .NET garbage. There's got to be a way of stopping this harassment. -Clint Happy Holidays to all & God Bless Clint Hamilton, Owner http://OrpheusComputing.com ) http://ComputersCustomBuilt.com ============= PCWorks Mailing List ================= Don't see your post?
