WinXP, PowerPoint 2003.

In presentation mode, I get an annoying Office warning dialogue box, when I click my hyperlink to Media player.

Can anyone suggest how to get rid of this?

What warning message are you getting?

Hi Bizzo,
Windows XP, HP Laptop.
PPT 2003, then 2007 same message:

It is an Office message to the effect:
This program can contain viruses harmful to your computer. It is important to be certain that this file is from a trustworthy source. Would you like to open this file?

I have 'allowed' this file permission on all the Firewalls.

I have also added this file address to the PPT Trust Centre, per MS info.

The video file has been copied into the relevant PPT folder.

The interesting thing is that I do not get this message on my PC. (Different Firewall?).

I have contacted my Anti-Virus program providers, and they tell me that they cannot help me because this is an Office warning.
