Default Can't unblock an executable copied from another system

I have two problems running an executable copied from another system:

1. I get a security warning: "The publisher could not be verified...". I
clear the check mark next to "Always ask before opening this file", and hit
"Run". The next time I start the same program, the same way, I get the same
warning - with the check mark next to "Always ask..." set again. Hello, I
just cleared the thing a few moments ago...

2. In an effort to get around the above, I right click, Properties. At the
bottom of the General tab it says "This file came from another computer and
might be blocked to help protect this computer". I click on "Unblock" and
then "OK". Immediately I right click, Properties, and guess what, it's still
blocked. Hello, I just unblocked it a few moments ago...

Putting security in is fine, but please pay attention to me when I turn
things off...
