my problem is the same, I try to open, for ex, Asus live update or even directly extract downloaded files with winrar using right click (if I first open them with winrar and copy them to another directory it doesn't happen), then a yellow warning appears, the same as here: Windows 7 security problem : Operating Systems
I've tried the solution here (altering internet options) and even system restore, but I can't go back anymore and it is still happening...
Sometimes it comes out of nowhere (Asus live update starting).
When I go see which program was blocked it is either the exe file from asus update or the winrar exe or another program....
I opened McAfee firewall and made sure the asus update was in the allowed list, I made a new permission on windows firewall just in case (it's not turned on anyway), I checked if windows defender was on (it's not), my UAC is normal....
I saw some solutions that alter the registry somewhere, and another saying I should just make a new user account... I don't want to do it unless it goes much worse... but it's really anoying...
It's the second stupid thing in the last 2 weeks (the other one was the black gadget problem, but the solution found in this forum only solves my problem until I turn off the PC, next session is the same....)
Sad...
Oh, Windows 7 64b and using firefox as main browser and mcafee as AV
