Karen: Been doing some digging, and still recommend leaving BROWSER executable security in place. This may have nothing to do with IE, and much to do with the Microsoft Office security envelope, which (I've not dug deeply enough to be certain) may temper the environment within which your applications runs.
If the workstations all have MS Office 2007, have a look: 1. Open Microsoft Word 2007 2. Click the Office Button (upper left hand corner) 3. Click Word Options 4. Click Trust Center 5. Click Trust Center Settings 6. Click Trusted Locations 7. Click Add new location... 8. Add path to R:Base executable folder 9. Check Subfolders of this location are also trusted 10. Provide description: "R:Base Hail Mary Play v1.0" 11. Click OK I recommend a restart after, to be certain. In any event, can't hurt. bruce chitiea safesectors, inc. > -------- Original Message -------- > Subject: [RBASE-L] - Re: RBase is not "trusted" exe > From: [email protected] > Date: Fri, August 27, 2010 6:19 am > To: [email protected] (RBASE-L Mailing List) > > > I would imagine their network is locked down tight, although for > some reason I was able to easily turn my notifications off rather > easily once a friend told me how.
