I have mine set for "Auto-decide" as it is way too chatty on "Ask" and you have to know what it is asking about.

+1+1. During Microsoft Tuesday I changed to Auto- decide to avoid any alerts.

If you put it on block, you will have a lot of safe things that just aren't known or signed get blocked. It would probably effectively break a lot of things.

For me: Ask.
Although in version 6 it triggers very rare. The questions mostly come from AutoSandbox.
