Everytime I go to upload a picture somewhere (photobucket, tinypic, myspace), when I pull up the browse box to look at my folders... this pops up:

http://i39.tinypic.com/23rv4u0.jpg

Every single time. It's so annoying. And I can't click the box to always remember that I'm saying allow, so how can I fix it? And it doesn't just pop up once, it pops up twice .. grrr

In Internet Explorer, go to tools -> Internet Options -> Security tab -> UNcheck "Enable Protected Mode (requires restarting Internet Explorer)" -> OK. This will, naturally, make Internet Explorer less secure.

Disabling User Account Control will also disable Protected Mode, without having to make the above change. If you also want to disable User Account Control ("Windows needs your permission to continue"), go to start -> control panel ->classic view -> User Accounts -> Turn User Account Control on or off -> UNcheck "Use User Account Control..." -> click OK -> restart at your convenience. This will make your computer less secure.

You need administrative privileges to do both of those things.
