I've been doing some local development of an AJAX application. As I didn't have access to the server that will host this application I had to use netscape.security.PrivilegeManager.enablePrivilege("UniversalBrowserRead"); to get around some cross-domain issues while developing locally.

When I added this bit of code and execute it Firefox displays a warning:

"A script from "file://" is requesting enhanced abilities that are UNSAFE and could be used to compromise your machine or data:

"Run or install software on your machine

"Allow these abilities only if you trust this source to be free of viruses or malicious programs.
[ ] Remember this decision"

It got irritating to have to click "Allow" each time this warning appeard so I eventually selected "remember this decision". Now I'm trying to figure out how to undo the selection to remember the decision and I can't find any documentation pointing me to how to do this.

This happening in Firefox 1.5 and continues after I've upgraded to 2.0 on Windows XP SP2.

Can anyone point me in the right direction to be able to re-enable this warning?

Thanks!
Bart

Check under Tools->Options->Security->Warning Messages.

thanks for the idea. I already tried that and none of those five options are the right ones.

Any other ideas?

Try looking through the about:config.
