PCOMM Certificate Error Override

An option is available in the pcswin.ini file:
[Security]
PassthroughCertValidation=Y

This allows PCOMM to connect to z/OS hosts where certificates are not trusted. However, it also generates a warning popup dialog that the user must respond to before the connect can complete. This creates operational problems, particularly when starting multiple sessions via a batch file (.bch). PCOMM needs another option that would allow the dialog to be suppressed.
