Already allowed changes

[gtksxp]

A Limited user on my Windows XP Home machine keeps
receiving two annoying alerts about changing the location
of their Documents folder from our C drive to our second
hard drive and changing their IE homepage, and even if
they allow and check the box to remember the action so
there are no repeated unnecesary alerts, they keep
repeating each time they log on and prompted to allow or
block the instances. The limited user is not an expert
user and I am concerned that they will accidentally allow
real spyware incidents. Please help.

About the only suggestion I can make is that the individual checkpoints can
be disabled. The IE home page is an application checkpoint called Internet
Explorer URL, as I recall.

I've looked, and not spotted what is alerting about the change in location
of the Documents folder. I would think this would be a System agent, but I
didn't spot it.

If you disable a checkpoint (via Tools, real-time protection, application
agents, view application agent checkpoints for example)--you will no longer
have the protection that checkpoint affords, of course.
