According to Microsoft at http://support.microsoft.com/?id=889815, you
can set your environment variable SEE_MASK_NOZONECHECKS equal to 1 -
but it's not recommended, as it disables zone checking (which is what
we want to do anyway).
Also note - I have not tried this yet, so I can't guarantee it will
work.

Or, right-click the downloaded file and choose Properties. Click Unblock and
then OK. The Zone Identifier attached to that file is now reset. For other
workarounds, see this archived post:
