Hiding the error message in PPViewer 2003

I know that Microsoft says that there is no way to
disable the warning when executing a hyperlink button.
My problem is this: I am switching from PPTViewer 97 to
PPTViewer 2003 for various reasons. We have over 100
computers running approximately 1000 pps files in our
workplace. Each of these pps files has a hyperlink
button to access graphics. It is not a possibility to
change the actions of the button and it is not a
possibility to install the full version on all of the
computers. Please help me!!! It would be very
unprofessional to allow this warning every time the
graphics hyperlink was pressed. (The graphics button
accesses an exe file which brings an authorware file to
the top window).
 
Does Chirag's add-in work with the 2003 Viewer as well? From what's
mentioned on the page, it only refers to PowerPoint, the program.

Chirag has written a utility that removes the hyperlink warning. This is
machine-specific, so you'd have to install it on all systems.

Only works with full up PPT though, doesn't it? Dave needs to use the
NewerViewer.

No this doesn't work for 2003 Viewer. I tried it, but no
result. Are there any other options?

The newer viewer means PowerPoint 2003 Viewer rather than the old viewer
(PowerPoint Viewer 97):

PowerPoint Viewer 2003 - http://snipurl.com/ppview2003
PowerPoint Viewer 97 - http://snipurl.com/ppview97

My bad, thanks for the corrections, everyone. This only turns off the
warnings for the full version of PPT, not for the 2003 Viewer.
