My team and I develop a program on VB.net. To run this program, user will
need to run an execute file (.EXE). The problem is that XP SP2 will also
prompt a windows and ask whether user want to run or cancel this. Ofcourse,
this case we need to run this program. So, is there anyway I can disable this
action. It is bothering our users a lot.

Thanks in advance

I'm not sure if this what you need
right click on the file and select properties from the menu
and from general tab click on "Unblock"
then "OK"

Hope it will help

From what I understood after did many research. This need to deal with
digital signature from Microsoft. So, my next question is How to get the
signature and how much it cost me. In this case if this software I developed
need to pay for digital signature. WORTH IT??? I don't know why I have to pay
for my own programing code. Don't you think it's funny. Correct me if I'm
wrong.
