Default Intermittent File Security Warning

Several of my PowerPoint presentations use video clips. Rather than imbed
them in the file, I keep them in a folder and use links to run them. When I
click "Play," I get the "Some files contain viruses..." for some of them and
some I don't. I'd rather not disable the warning when it is appropriate, but
don't want it popping up when accessing files in my own pc. I added the
"video folder" to trusted locations, but I still get the warnings. Very
annoying and looks like amateur night when making presentations. Are there
any solutions to this short of disabling this warning feature? I didn't have
this until I updated from Vista to Windows 7.

you could try these workarounds.... no guarantee it will work in win7 though.

Some files can contain viruses ..." message when clicking a hyperlink

If it does - could you report back what worked for you?
