File attachment warning message

I think I got past all the warning messages except this one:  

"You have chosen to open a file that may contain viruses or be
otherwise harmful to your computer.  It is important to be certain
that the file comes from a trustworthy source.  Do you want to
continue?"

This message is displayed when a person tries to open a document (e.g.
an Excel document) that is attached to an Infopath form (file was
attached with the file attachment control).  Is there a way to avoid
this error?

Thanks,
Carol

Unfortunately, that error is for security purposes and cannot be avoided.
Why do you want to disable this warning?

Thanks,
Scott

As our Document Control group deals with a number of documents
everyday, it is tedious to have to acknowledge the same warning
message again and again.

Is there no way to register all instances of of a certain document
type (e.g. .doc, .xls, etc) as 'safe' to open without that message?

Thanks,
Carol
