Well, technically this arrangement is intended to protect you ... although it seems as if there should be different options depending on whether a certificate is simply expired or whether it has been revoked.
Global solutions (disable UAC) seem like a very bad idea to solve a local (single exe) problem. The operating system really should offer something more selective. Interesting to see the option you did find, thanks for sharing that.
