I am using package multimedia
to insert videos into my PDF document using the command:
\movie[externalviewer]{Caption}{moviefile}
which works fine. My problem is that when I click on the caption I receive a warning message from Adobe Reader before the video launches:
The file and its viewer application are set to be launched by this PDF file. The file may contain programs, macros, or viruses that could potentially harm your computer. Only open the file if you are sure it is safe. If this file was placed by a trusted person or program, you can click Open to view the file.
I understand the security reasons for the error message, but I am giving a presentation with a number of external videos and I would like to disable this message.
I realise this is probably more to do with Adobe Reader and not Latex, but I hoped someone here might be able to help?
I'm using Adobe Reader X Version 10.1.4

As suggested by the OP:
Since the viewer being used Adobe Reader-X, it is suggested that one uses
media9
package. From the package description at CTAN:This package eliminates the pop-up message by providing compatible interface. Please note the suggested formats for the audio and video files.
