Answer 1

As a security measure, all software SHOULD be "signed" with a valid software certificate indicating its authenticity...

However, some publishers do not wish to invest the money in purchasing that certificate, even though MOST do!

The warning is a "heads up" that the program you are trying to run does not have such a valid signature, and warning you to be EXTRA careful to make sure it is "good" and not a virus or spyware... If you are certain of its origin and authenticity, you may run it... If not, BE CAREFUL!
