Greetings,

Yes you can do this, simply download and run the following .reg file:

You'll need to reboot to see the change.

Hi RCC,

It's a registry file which just changes an entry in the registry -- you can open it using any
text editor (i.e. Notepad) to see exactly what it does. Windows simply warns you because it
recognizes its a registry file.
