Windows Security Warning pop-up box when trying to run .ex..

I have had several instances when trying to run a .exe file I had emailed
myself and getting a pop-up Windows Security Warning. There is no option to
run program. All time the exe was inside a .zip file. I can not even
extract it to the HDD without getting the same message. How do I get around
this?

Thanks,

Have you right clicked on the downloaded file (or zip folder) and selected
Properties to see if there is an "Unblock" button on the General tab?
