If we download any file from Internet adn try to open in let say in Word 2010 then it will prompt us that the particular file is originated from Internet location and disable editing in it. That file is kept in reading mode only and no editing is possible in it untill editing is disabled.
Word 2010 feature named as Protected view will ask us for “Enable Editing” and the editing will be possbible only if we trust the file and give indication to Word 2010 about our trust by clicking on Enable Editing.
