Now that you mentioned it, I noticed this too. I looked all over the
preferences and PowerPoint menus, and couldn't find a place to disable the
message. Pretty tacky-looking, if you're doing a presentation for a client
or a group of students, and suddenly this message comes up and says that
the
file you're about to open isn't safe. In fact, this message is just plain
bad planning on the part of Microsoft as I see it. This is the
out-of-the-box functionality... I can't see what the benefit is to this,
besides potentially warning people about visiting web sites or pages that
might potentially pose some kind of threat, or opening a file they may
know
nothing about. This is really silly if you're the one who's creating the
presentation and making the links, isn't it.
