Unable to view designer in VS2010 due to DLL over the network

I am getting the error -

Unable to load the metadata for assembly 'Aurora.UIResources'. This assembly may have been downloaded from the web. See http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=179545. The following error was encountered during load: Could not load file or assembly 'Aurora.UIResources, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null' or one of its dependencies. Operation is not supported. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80131515)

I am referencing the file over the network and the application will run and work just fine. I just can't seem to see the 'preview' in the designer. I am running Windows 7 Enterprise 64bit.

Does anyone have an idea on how to resolve this?

See this

This seems to work for some people

"Open devenv.exe.config (in C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0\Common7\IDE on my machine), and add this"

<runtime>
    <loadFromRemoteSources enabled="true" />
    ....
</runtime>
