    Are you testing from a local drive or via a web server ?

    IE will always pop up that annoying warning when you are viewing a HTML / web page from a "C:\whatever_folder\whatever_file.html" address, whereas it won't from a "http://whatever_folder/whatever_file.html" address

    Download a webserver. Google XAMPP. It installs apache server, php, mySQL and other bits and bobs. IIRC there is a lite version which is a smaller download and will have all you need.

    You can accept the default options (unless you are running vista - then you will want to install XAMPP in c:\xampp rather than the default c:\program files\xampp because the UAC will prevent a user from copying files into program files directory). When it is installed, copy your web files into a subdirectory e.g.mysite of the xampp\htdocs directory and you can now access the site through the apache server via the address http://localhost/mysite without the directx problems
