Disable Internet Explorer prompt 'the program will open outside of protected mode' when running application through BHO

I have written a BHO that will start a console application as soon as the BHO got instantiated. The console application is a simple helper application developed in C# and is placed in local disk C.

When I deployed the BHO on my development machine it worked fine but when deployed on the none development machines, Internet Explorer gives the following popup

I just want to get rid of the above popup

I have tried the following solutions already

Also we cannot disable the protected mode of Internet Explorer as it will allow all other applications including malware.

You could try the ElevationPolicy registry key. The registry settings live in {HKLM/HKCU}\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Low Rights\ElevationPolicy with a unique GUID for each application. You should find the key your application lies on and change the Policy value to 3 and restart IE to try again.

For more detailed information, you could refer to this article.
