Haha, the trusted publisher mechanism, eh? Sounds like a way for the big guys to bypass the security checks. I'll just go with whatever Herman said, she seems to know her stuff.

A, B, and E look like the correct answers to me. The trusted publisher mechanism is designed to allow signed executables from trusted sources to run without going through the full security check process.
