Hi

I have a few packages that are prompting the XP Security warning when the SCCM advertisement get started.

Does anyone to workaround this or to disable this.

I have "inlcude all network paths (UNC)" checked in the security IE settings,

I also tried to enable a GPO but without success.
Local Computer Policy->User Configuration->Administrative Templates->Windows Components->Attachment Manager and enable "Default risk level for file attachments", and then enable "Inclusion list for low risk file types" and add to this list the file extensions

It looks like this GPO does not apply when running an SMS pakcage??

Anyone? Tnx Nico

I use the following script in my BDD 2.5/SMS 2003 infrastructure for that very reason.

' =======================================================
' #  Declare variables
' =======================================================
Set oShell= CreateObject("Wscript.Shell")
Set oEnv = oShell.Environment("PROCESS")
' =======================================================
' #  Remove the file open security warning
' =======================================================
oEnv("SEE_MASK_NOZONECHECKS") = 1
' =======================================================
' #  Run process
' =======================================================
' Example - oShell.Run "WindowsInstaller-KB893803-v2-x86.exe /passive /norestart",0,True
oShell.Run "",0,True
oEnv.Remove("SEE_MASK_NOZONECHECKS")



Should at least point you in the right direction..  :)

I deploy every application using a VBScript wrapper in our environment, and that method of turning off the security warning window works just fine...

I'm just really super-super paranoid about checking the source files' .exe files before I add any distro points.  Right-click the exe files, and "unblock" them, so that ntfs bit isn't there to be replicated.  But if you've already replicated; unchecking the box now & replicating won't fix it.  The bit is set on the target distro points' ntfs, so using the script above is a good workaround.

Hi Sherry

Sorry for my ignorance but what do you mean with unblocking an exe file via Right mouse click

OK found it ;-)

Is there any reason why some exe's have it and other ones not?

From memory (it's been a few years since I looked into this), when you download a file from the internet using Internet Explorer, your Windows operating system (or was it IE?) at some hotfix / service pack level that NTFS stream was added to protect normal users by having this extra prompt to remind you that whatever it is you are about to launch came from a possibly untrusted source.

The fixes I found at the time (there may be more by now) 
  1. use a non-IE web browser (firefox for example) which doesn't do that friendly little security check.
  2. When you are downloading, save your downloads to a FAT formatted partition (like a USB stick).  A FAT or FAT32 formatted partition can't remember the NTFS streams.
  3. Use, I think it was from sysinternals, a 'Streams' executable to delete streams
  4. Or right-click and check the .exe's Block status and unblock.

One of the problems for us as admins is if you forget to clear the stream before replication, you've replicated the stream-enabled version to your DPs, so you have to remove the stream from each DP.  Removing the stream from the source & re-replicating (if I recall) isn't enough because the destination already has the stream it won't delete it like that.  So that's why William's script is a great alternative.
