virus warning

[Ramin]

When creating self running presentations on CD I often want to include an exe. file (such as Acrobat Reader), when I link the file in PowerPoint on CD it comes up with a warning saying some files can contain virus are you sure you want to go ahead. How do I remove this warning as it could scare many people

Thanks

You can try the "Run program" option instead of the "Hyperlink to" option
(under the Action Settings dialog box). When you click the "Browse" button
to find the "program", make sure you change the files of type to "All files"
so you will be able to find the PDF file. Not positive that you won't get
the message, but it is worth a try. It works on some files.
