Dan,

I ran into same problem again - couldn't find answer online, but I then
remembered the source of the fix last time.

I had this saved in OE - my 'Newsgroup tips' folder
Thanks AGAIN.

You thought Dan was still monitoring the 20-month old thread? You
needed to share your diary entry about the success of your newsgroups
search or looking in your notes or saved posts?

Using MOTW (Mark of the Web) in your HTML file is just one solution. If
you are going to run more HTML files that are local and have active
content then you might want to consider disabling the security feature
in IE that generates the infobar popup that you want to avoid.

Internet Options -> Advanced tab
Security section
"Allow active content ..." (2 options)

Enable those options (to disable the warning infobar). Of course, not
putting scripts in your local HTML files would work, too.
