    After a clean install of Vista and fighting w/ driver issues I'm getting Security warning pop up:

    ​
    Do you want to run this file?
    for:

    1-..\Intel\Intel Matrix Storage Manager\IAAnotif.exe
    2-..\Intel Matrix Storage Manager\OROM\IaNvSrv\IaNvSrv.exe
    3-Program Files\Synaptics\SynTP\SynTPEnh.exe
    4-Program Files\Synaptics\SynTP\SynTPHelper.exe

    and the note: While files from the Internet can be useful, this file type can potencially harm your computer. Only run software from publishers you trust.

    All the drivers and utilities that I install came from ASUS Downloads
    If not suppose to work without warnings?

    Well, bugs are everywhere. :) If you're not using RAID, the first two programs may be unneeded (I am not sure about this). If that is the case, then you could stop them and get rid of that problem.

    About the touchpad drivers, I don't know. Isn't there the possibility to change the security level with which the EXEs start (e.g., set them all to start with Admin rights) so that you are not queried every time? This solution might work for the first 1 EXEs as well.
