Hi I have just downloaded the latest speed camera data and when I clicked on to move the data from the zip file it showed
"This page has an unspecified popential security flaw"
Is this anything to be concerned about. I have only just noticed it!

What database did you download?

What operating system are you using?

What software is being used to open the ZIP file?

Is Internet Explorer showing the message? What version are you using?

SYMPTOMS
When you call the ShowModalDialog function inside a Web page, if you set the security of the Internet Zone between Low and High, you may receive the following error message:
This page has an unspecified potential security flaw. Would you like to continue?
Back to the top

CAUSE
This problem occurs because of how Internet Explorer behaves when it uses the cookieEnabled property inline with ShowModalDialog. By default, Internet Explorer checks the cookieEnabled policy for the Internet Zone. However, because Internet Explorer does not have a default handler for this check, Internet Explorer displays a generic error message.

RESOLUTION
To resolve this problem, use the window.open method instead.

It's odd, because the error is concerning the webspage and not the zip file.

When you hit the Download button do you OPEN or SAVE?
