when I open AutoCad2014 I get this message:
An executable file was found outside of specified trusted locations. What do you want to do?
C:/programfiles(x86)/autodesk/content service/support/woodecad200_r16.mnl
We have load Louisiana Pacific's Wood E Cad on top of Auto Cad, what can I do so this goes away?

command OPTIONS -> "Files" tab.
Look for "Trusted Locations".
Highlight, then Add, then Browse to that folder.
If you want the whole directory of the preceding level, add "\..." to the end of the string
and the folder with all of the sub-folders will be part of the trusted paths. Gently click twice
on the line, then press the [End] key.
If the folder is not Read Only, you will get a warning dialog box.

set your "secureload" system variable to "0"
uhm.... no. instead understand what the secureload mechanism does, how it work, and take advantage of it instead of reflexivley killing it.
Once the OP fully understand what it does, how it works, what the risks are, then one can make an intelligent decision about how to use it. That may include setting the sysvar to 0, but probabloy should not.
0 Loads executable files without warning. This option maintains legacy behavior, but is not recommended.
1 Loads executable files only if their location is in the trusted locations specified in the TRUSTEDPATHS system variable. Displays a warning during load requests from executable files that are not in trusted locations.
2 Allows executable files to be loaded only if their location is in the trusted locations specified in the TRUSTEDPATHS system variable.
Right from AutoDesk help. "F1"
Hope this helps.
A security control on the System tab of the Options dialog box provides access to new Executable File Settings.
You can allow executable files to be loaded from all search paths or only from the trusted locations specified on the Files tab. And, you can choose to display a warning before loading executable files outside the trusted locations.
When Trusted Locations or TRUSTEDPATHS includes a folder that ends with \... (backslash and three dots), all of its subfolders are also trusted.
