How to disable or turn off hyperlink message "file from a Trustworthy Source"

[Lester Thompson]

Using PowerPoint 2003 using Windows 7 OS, I have inserted hyperlinks to ".
svs" digital whole scanned slides (similar to an exe request). When in
"show" mode, the annoying message:
"Some files contain viruses ... it is important to be certain the file is
from a trustworthy source.
Do you want to open the file?"
I have 15 presentations, all with links to different image files and I don't
want this message each time.
1) I have opened as "administrator" and set security to "low" for the macro
settings;
2) I have opened as "administrator" and tried to reset the dialog box to
"don't show again," but it is not an option (as you would do for Outlook).

HELP!

I think if you put the linked files in trusted locations on the harddrive
(which you can specify in PPT Options), you're not supposed to see this
warning.

You might also check Chirag's utility to turn this off:
