Safari security warning - stop the madness!

Safari is driving me insane. I often save to hard drive webpages with, say, recipes. When ready, then I usually open a number of pages at once (individual windows since saved as separate files to harddrive, sometimes as webarchive, sometimes html, depending on site) , then browse them at leisure (perhaps copy/paste selections here and there), cont-W to exit (or not) as I go. I can no longer enjoy that ease of browsing my files.

Safari refuses to open multiple-selected webpages stored on my harddrive. It first pops up it's warning to remind me this is app downloaded from internet. I have to click Open on the $%#$ security warning, then it opens only the first document of the selected documents. I am forced to open the EACH document manually, one at a time, clicking Open on the warning for EACH one. It is patently absurd!

I am ready to throttle the Apple geniuses who came up with this. I can't find any place where I am given a choice about this friggin' "security measure". I should be able to turn it off if I want to take the risk. At least temporarily.

Does anyone know how to disable this warning which is constantly in my face?
 
Thanks much! I am not a "power" user, so at a quick glance, it may be over my head and more for Leopard, but a lot to cover there. I am going to slow down and read all of it carefully, believe me. lol. May be something there even I can manage to do. And I'm desperate here. I really appreciate your help; I would never have found any of that on my own.
 
To simplify that - you can download and install OnyX, which allows you to disable that launch alert message, just by clicking on a box.
 
Woo hooo! Beautiful! Exactly what I dreamt of, a clickable box to toggle the warning, disabling it at least when I plan to browse a bunch of downloaded html pages. You have put a smile on this face, thank you!
