I'm getting dialogue boxes telling me that the administrator has changed
settings that I as the administrator are not making. Using IE on TOOL Internet Options I can no longer view this as the message tells me this is noi longer available due to an admin change. Where do I go to solve this?? |

If the message says something along the lines of this action has been
prevented by an administrator, etc then maybe you used an internet protection package such as one for spyware or malware to lockdown your computer to secure it from hijacks etc. If you have installed or configured such a program as of late that may be the problem. Some of these programs do not make it clear to the user when they are being installed what they all do. If you have not done anything like that then maybe you are a victim of spyware or malware and should scan your computer for viruses with your antivirus program being sure to use the latest definition file from your publishers website. For spyware I suggest that you start with AdAware SE which has a free for personal user version. To minimize the noise that it will detect be sure to clear your cookies and temporary internet files before scanning with it and make sure that you are using the latest definitions for it before you scan. It should check for such during installation. --- Steve http://www.download.com/3000-2144-10045910.html --- AdAware SE http://www.microsoft.com/athome/secu...2/Default.mspx --- Protect Your PC tips "dxm" <dxm@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:41736C8F-03F8-4562-AFE8-8EA45CD441F4@microsoft.com... > I'm getting dialogue boxes telling me that the administrator has changed > settings that I as the administrator are not making. > Using IE on TOOL Internet Options I can no longer view this as the message > tells me this is noi longer available due to an admin change. > Where do I go to solve this?? |

Thanks I have AdAware and have run it, identied three object quarantined ande
leted them. I have aslo restored back to a prior restore point, but still the same. From IE-Tools-Internet options, the tabs are still missing. The dialog bx reads"Operations cancelled due to Restrciotns on the Computer', which I have no recollection of making, any further ideas?

If you are using XP Pro try opening local Group Policy using gpedit.msc and
go to user configuration /administrative templates/Windows components/Internet Explorer/internet control panel and configure all the settings there to be disabled to see if that helps. If that does not work try downloading Doug Knox's .vbs script at the link below to run to change registry settings that should allow you access. --- Steve http://www.dougknox.com/xp/scripts_d...issingtabs.htm "dxm" <dxm@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:1B8E3A64-300D-4ABB-8187-26650CFC4137@microsoft.com... > Thanks I have AdAware and have run it, identied three object quarantined > ande > leted them.
