  1. How do I disable "file download security" warning when opening an Application


    I keep getting a "file download" security popup whenever I open the sims or any other application through Steam. This is super annoying, and I already went and turned off the popupssupposedly through Internet options. I do have Webroot installed, though I have completely disabled it, and this still occurs, I am not sure what to do.

    :)
