Run .bat file w/o "unsigned" warning?

How can I run a .bat file I wrote without the interactive warning "The
publisher could not be verified..."

I don't digitally sign the bat files I write - so the message is
correct. I still don't want to see it :-)

Thanks,

WTF? It's just a text file.

The OP:

Is the .bat file accessing something on a server?

Yes, but sometimes NTFS stores some additional information to files. e.g.
when you download an .exe file from the internet, you get a warning when you
double click it.
You can get rid of that by removing the additional information that can only
be stored on NTFS that way.

I was just guessing, so.. anyway.

I think you're on the right trail... when I run the file on the
server, I get the warning. I can run it locally and not get the
warning.

How do I shut off this network warning? I have the same issue with a
database that MS-Access (on Vista) won't even let me open from a local
network drive! (file is on untrusted source yada, yada, yada).

Try adding \\servername to Internet Options - Security - Local Intranet
zone.
