Hi,

I'm having problem installing Authorware from Adobe. The message that I've been getting is - WINDOWS HAS BLOCKED THIS SOFTWARE BECAUSE IT CAN'T VERIFY THE PUBLISHER.
File name: AWSWAXD.CAB
Publisher: UNKNOWN PUBLISHER
1) I'm using Windows XP Pro SP2 w/ the latest patches.
2) Using Internet Explorer 6.0 128Bit SP2 w/ latest patches.
3) Domain is MS AD, no GPO restriction for Active X.
4) Other location/subnet has no problem installing Authorware.
I've checked the browser settings about MANAGE AD-ONS, TRUST SITES, COOKIES and other recommendations. According to Adobe website it is a known issue with WinXP Pro SP2 and they have KB dated back on Aug. 8, 2006.
Have anyone come across this problem.

Thanks.
 
Thanks BCastner for your input.
I couldn't fix it through your link to MS, maybe I missed something but I did manage to fix the problem.
Not sure if Websense has anything to do with it(In case I didn't mention)but, basically I requested a free 1yr. licensing from Adobe and install Authorware internally. Even after the internal install initially, I still had problem running the Active X or part of the Authorware install. But to make story short, I kept messing with IE browser like you said it's user specific and got it to run. But what a pain. Thanks again.
