when trying to open the "my documents" folder i get a wierd message,"this page has an unspecified potential security risk..."

this is a new one. it just started happening today.

when i go to open "my documents" on my desktop i get the following
warning message:

"this page has an unspecified potential security risk. would you like to
continue"?

again, i only noticed this today.

"my docs" are folder redirected, but that was never a problem for some
months now. this is why i'm not sure the folder redirection is to blame.

i did run windows update, but i don't know if some update caused the
problem.

any any all help will be greatly appreciated.

i came across this on google:

http://www.annoyances.org/exec/forum...ta/t1151260847

since this isn't a problem with an executable, i don't see how it'll help.

another find:

the setting is already set to 0

i also came across this:

someone had something similar and was told not to worry about it - that
it was some certificate issue.
