Whitelisting Local Drive Locations - Out-of-Date Activex Java Control Blocking

Greetings,

We've had success in adapting and whitelisting trusted domains with the recent addition of IE blocking dated versions of Java.

However, Cisco Securemail uses a attached .htm that a few agencies send to our associates that are opened locally on their PCs then authenticate to a service in the cloud-- these .htm files embed the use of Java. We can whitelist and authenticate fine to those services, but the initial local Java pop-up has proved troublesome.

The following TechNet article touches on how to whitelist a local location, but it's specific to user profile andthe name of the file.http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn761713.aspx. Is there a means of which to whitelist an entire directory of files and folders to avoid this? I've tried file:///C:/Users/ and file:///C:/Users/*" but haven't had any luck. I realize I could turn this off altogether, and that whitelisting C:\Users isn't very secure-- but we're really like to keep as much of this functionality in place as possible.
