How to configure Local Intranet Sites for the entire machine, not just the user

I'm trying to remove the annoying "Open File - Security Warning" dialog that pops up when I try to run a .cmd file from a local file share.  I can do this for the *current user* by going into Control Panel..Internet Settings..Security..Local Intranet..Sites..Advanced and adding a domain name such as *.mycompany.com.  But I need to do this for *any user* that logs on to the machine.

The machines are in a windows workgroup.

I need the "mouse+click" way to do it and the registry way so I can automate the process.

Sorry, forgot to mention, to add the domain then to the intranet zone policy using the registry file is simply a matter of double clicking the registry file and click yes to add it to the registry.

ydsonline - "gpupdate /force" did not work.  It took a reboot to take effect.
