The title of the dialog is "Open File - Security Warning". The dialog text reads: "The publisher could not be verified. Are you sure you want to run this software?" Then it lists Name: Remote Debugger Stub.exe, Publisher: Unknown Publisher, Type: Application and From: .PSF. Below that are a "Run" and "Cancel" button (Cancel is the default). Finally there is a shield icon at the bottom with this text next to it: This file does not have a valid digital signature that verifies its publisher. You should only run software from the publishers you trust. How can I decide what software to run? -- This last bit links to what looks to be a Microsoft Internet Explorer Help topic on "Should you open files from Internet or e-mail that you have saved to your computer?"
There are no checkboxes to check. So I looked for some in Remote Debugger's Properties dialog, and discovered what must have been the problem. I was running it from a shared folder, which XP running in Parallels sees as a network drive. Copying the EXE to the C drive fixed everything. So thanks for mentioning the checkbox!

For executables there's usually a checkbox in that dialog that you can uncheck to remove the warning. I haven't used the Remote Debugger at all, but opening it just now I don't get any warnings at all. However, I likely disabled such warnings a long, long, long time ago. If that checkbox isn't there, please report back with what the exact message in the warning box is, and I'm sure I can help you. Thanks, Fargo Dennis Birch wrote: > (My apologies if this is a repost.
