For one thing, secpol.msc doesn't exist on Home machines. I'm not sure if you import a copy from a Pro machine it would work, anyway.
There's a SetSAFER.msi if you follow the first link. Since Pro users do have secpol, there's no need to 1) download setSAFER and 2) install .NET to run setSAFER. Well, here's a tidbit for editing it manually, if someone with XP Home could try because I currently don't have Home installed:

The registry keys reside under HKLM\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\Safer\CodeIdentifiers\131072. For each file or directory, add a new key named {GUID} where GUID is a random GUID in classic GUID format, such as {cc845d85-f38e-426a-8644-9d2f90c830d8}, and then add the following values:

Description (REG_SZ) A comment about the rule.
ItemData (REG_SZ) Directory or filename
SaferFlags (REG_DWORD) 0x0
Actually, a million ways are listed without using the secpol. Just that Pro users have the benefit of having the policy editor and someone to compile easy to use instructions.

No, the first link didn't go to that page. It links to .../secure11152004.asp, where the one with the link is at .../secure01182005.asp -- but no matter, I found it.
