Fix of security warning

The fix is simple, you got to change a registry value.

The target registry path is located under Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\VisualStudo\10.0\Dubugger and the key is “DisableAttachSecurityWarning” the default value is “0” and we have to set its value to “1” to get rid of the security warning.

Note that you have to close visual studio before making the change, other wise the value will not get set.
