"Always trust macros.." checkbox grayed out in Excel

E

Hi,

This may not be the right place to post this but this is where I'll start.
Network administrator for a Windows 2003 domain w/ XP clients. One of my
users has an Excel spreadsheet w/ macros that is used for various
administrative tasks (non I.T.) The spreadsheet always pops the macro warning
dialog when it starts up and for some users it has become an "annoyance".

I tried to sign the macro w/ my domain CA-issued code signing cert but when
I did this, only I was able to click the box to "Always trust macros from
this publisher.." - the box was grayed out for everyone else (non-admins).

Obviously I'm missing or don't understand something - I do not have the
"Trusted Publisher lockdown" enabled in Group Policy and as this is the first
time we've played around with code-signing I don't believe that any
GP-initiated restrictions have been set in the past (I'm the only one working
on GP).

Anyone have any thoughts? Suggestions?

Thanks...
