I have a number of .bat files which I run at regular intervals via the Task Scheduler. These all ran OK under 2000. My PC has recently been upgraded to XP and these jobs now fail to run. When I edit the .bat file I get a warning message "The publisher could not be verified. Are you sure you want to run this software?" I can override this by answering yes but I guess the scheduled jobs are failing as I cannot reply when they run.
Is there a way that I can associate a publisher with my batch files or override the prompt.

Thanks
 
Oh the joys of security and microsoft.

You need to add your PC as a trusted zone in internet explorer - or if on a domain then adding the domain should suffice.
