NetHelp targets that are opened locally (on your machine) may display this message, depending on your security settings. You could add the Mark of the Web (MOTW) to your project in the Help Targets dialog. See Editing Target Settings.

Some things are changed in the Theme Designer; some in the layout.html file. See Using the NetHelp Theme Designer and Additional Theme Customizations.

In the Theme Designer, click on the header to open the Page Header settings and choose Logo Image (Tabs and Accordion themes only). For the Responsive theme, Logo Image is in the sidePanel settings. You can specify a logo there. It will appear in the upper-left of your header. See NetHelp Theme Designer Settings (Tabs and Accordion).

You can also add a URL or JavaScript link to a logo image in a custom theme. This makes the logo interactive, opening another location or performing some kind of action when a user clicks it.
