disable prompt associated with opening hyperlink file from powerpo

Powerpoint XP

I have hyperlinked to tif files in the same directory folder as my power
point presentation but whenever you click the link from the presentation, an
annoying message comes up. I have searched everywhere for a solution to
disable the message but can't find any answers??? The message is:

Opening "file path"
Some files contain viruses or otherwise be harmful to your computer.
It is important to be certain that this file is from a trustworthy source.

See http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=291912 "You receive a
virus warning message when you click hyperlink to a program in
Office 2002 or Office 2000".

You've received two responses steering you to the MSKB fix.

I'll steer you to PPT MVP Chirag Dalal's site. He created a utility so you
don't have to go through all that pain to turn off this warning.

Let's stop there and ask why. "It feels so good when I stop" is a reasonable
answer, I guess. Here's how you can stop:

Insert, Picture, From File and browse to your picture. Instead of clicking the
main OK button in the Insert Picture dialog box, click the arrowhead pointer
thing next to it and choose Link.

You can later use the free FixLinks demo at http://fixlinks.pptools.com to
either set up the links so they work as long as the PPT and the linked files
stay together in the same folder or to embed them if you no longer need the
links.

but whenever you click the link from the presentation, an
