Very well could be. I've seen it when browsing to a share on a different
workgroup or domain, rather than a share local to the workgroup of the
machine, which I know can be altered via the policy editor. Home Vs Pro
isn't likely to have too much of an impact, beyond the lack of policy
tools and the ability to join a domain.

Ahh, sounds similar to the message you get when you choose to run an
application from the internet, instead of saving it. Glad you sorted it
out. Must be something odd, to XP at least, about the way the share is
presented, since I don't recall having ever seen that message from
anything run over a network drive.
I've seen it when running an .exe from a network drive. In my case it
was a .NET assembly rather than a Win32 .exe, but I don't know that it
matters. Whether or not the dialog is presented may depend on which
version of XP you're running (Home vs. Pro) and the security policies in
force.
