Default IE Limited Users Home Page Problems... Help!!!


I am having problems setting up a different user's home
page in Internet Explorer. Whenever a limited user logs
on, the AntiSpyware's Real Time Protection keeps on
giving me the error:

"The IE URL for your start page is attempting to be
changed from http://www.myadministrators_homepage.com /
to http://www.mylimitedusers_homepage.com"

It does give me the option to allow for the change, but
the message continues to pop up every time a limited user
logs on.

Any way around this??? How can I set up a different IE
home page for each user without getting these annoying
alerts??

Rick--the solution to this one is turning off the agent making this check,
as far as I can see at this point. Let me see if I can figure out where it
lives:

Ok--Tools, Real Time Protection, Application Agents.
In the Checkpoint details, I believe the one (we) want is "Internet Explorer
URLs" highlight that one, and at the lower right select Deactivate
Checkpoint.

I don't see a way to expand its view, within the settings, to allow, for
example, for multiple users on the same machine, etc.

For many users, this check is broken as implemented so far.

I did as you recommended and it is no longer giving me
those annoying messages. Thanks. It would be nice to not
HAVE to disable that feature, and instead give you an
option to put an IE home page for each individual user.
Just a thought! But thanks, it was definitely helpful.

I am also having issues with my .NET accounts. First of
all, and I am not sure which setting to change,
AntiSpyware is deleting the login name and password in
the .NET log in screen for Windows Messenger. I have
unchecked the "IE - Intelligent Forms - Auto Complete"
options it gives you under the Tracks Eraser Feature, but
still no luck.

Also and probably of more importance to me, the limited
users' accounts were set up so that Windows Messenger
would sign in automatically when they logged in to the
computer. After installing Antispyware, Messenger tries
to sign in during start up but fails and it is kept in
the system tray. Furthermore, if you try to sign in
manually it does not allow the user to sign in if they
click on the "sign me in automatically" checkbox. It
gives you the "signing in to .NET Messenger Services
failed because the password is incorrect or the sing in
name doesn't exist. If you have forgotten the
password..." It does allow the user to sign in if
the "sign me in automatically" checkbox is not checked.
How can I get around this without compromising security??

Good news guys, I had the same problem. This solution
worked for me: Go to the link below and read the
lspfix.txt file then download the LSPFix.exe onto a floppy
or CD. Transfer the floppy or CD to the problem computer
and run the LSPFix.exe. Make sure that you read the
lspfix.txt prior to running the .exe.<a

Michael--I'm sure that is a useful fix for some problems, including ones
encountered in this beta--but not for the problems described in this thread.

You need to log into messenger on each sign in once, so
that the autosignin can work. Once you have successfully
signed in, sign out and then attempt to check sign in
automatically, and once it connects successfully, it
should save your info on that profile, this is windows xp?

Default IE Limited Users Home Page Problems... Help!!!

this is why we need a USER ACCOUNT on microsoft
antispyware feature where we can have different setting
with different user account. Norton internet Security has
this features and it work really great i hope they add
this kind of feature to microsoft antispyware?
