I just installed XP SP2 two days ago and just tried to download a video editing file recommended to me in another thread. I didn't realize SP2 would pop up warnings when I download files, but okay that's fine. I told it to go ahead and download the file. I think it was when I tried to open it (after scanning) that it popped up again telling me the file had no digital signature. Although I think SP2 is mostly being a hysterical worry-wart, I don't want to take a chance and just blame SP2 and override its warning.
How do I know when it's OK to ignore warnings about signatures and other things that were never brought to my attention until SP2? I always scan everything I download, but beyond that, if I have to make a decision about whether to open things based on other reasons such as this, what am I supposed to base it on? I don't know..
It's this program, if it matters: http://www.snapfiles.com/get/zweistein.html
