Description
This setting controls whether or not the user sees a dialog box when opening Microsoft InfoPath forms containing digitally signed content. By default, InfoPath shows the user a warning message when the form contains a digital signature. By being aware of a digitally signed form, the user will be able to check the validity of the signature. Otherwise, the forms may have been maliciously modified and will be invalidated.
