I want to run a programme on my local computer from a web page displyed in IE5. No problem to put a link on the page to the programme. But you then get the 'Do you want to run from present location or save to disk box'. There is a tick box to disable this but it's always greyed out. If you ask to run it you then get a 'no certifcate box'.

How can I do away with all this?

I thought to put the programme file in the security 'trusted locations' but I can't get it to accept a local file path. I've been all over the help and security options but can't find the right one.

Can anybody help please?

Try going to IE>Tools>Inet Options>Advanced Tab......scroll to bottom to security area.....Uncheck "Check for server certificate revocation"....

Also got to Content tab>certificates and see if you have any listed as expired or revoked and delete them.....
