Access Plus Win XP SP2 Equals Annoying

I hate Windows XP Service Pack 2's new security features. Now in order for me to open a simple Access file I have to click through FOUR different security warnings:
  1. Do you want to open this file? Uhh, well, yeah, that's why I clicked on it.
  2. Security Warning: Unsafe Expressions Are Not Blocked. I don't even know what that means. The database I want to open contains a couple tables. No scripts, nothing fancy. Just a couple tables. Just open the friggin' file!
  3. Unsafe Expressions Not Blocked. Are you sure you want to open this file? Yes! Open the damn file!
  4. This file may not be safe if it contains code that was intended to harm your computer. Do you want to open this file or cancel the operation? Open. The. Damn. File.
Repeat that process several times each day with various databases.
