Vista - unidentified program dialog

unidentified program dialog

When I run my anti-virus program (Avast), Vista puts up a dialog saying "An
unidentified program wants access to your computer" with the choices Cancel
and Allow. Is there something I can do to mark my Avast .exe files so that
Vista will know that it is OK, so that I don't have to fool with the dialog
every time I run a scan?

Thanks,
Jeff
