I believe it's in the "Changes in XP SP2" document (which I'm just trying to find now).
It's also mentioned here: http://www.microsoft.com/windows/ie/community/columns/oeandsp2.mspx I think this feature kicks in when you download a .exe using a post-SP2 copy of IE (or post Windows Server 2003 SP1 copy of IE), or receive it via email in OE. There is a flag in the ADS for that file that is checked, which results in the blocking. But let me see if I can find the Changes in XP SP2 doc.
