Internet options error

[Guest]

When I try to access internet options, I receive this error message:
This operation has been cancelled due to restrictions on your computer.
Please contact your system administrator.
Also, my default web page is AOL and I am unable to change it.
Any help would be appreciated!!!!!!!!!!

Restart after applying this registry tweak.

Also, my default web page is AOL and I am unable to change it.

Scan your system for malware that cause such problems.

Use Regedit.exe and search for NoBrowserOptions and remove it.
It is most likely to be here (but not necessarily)
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Internet
Explorer\Restrictions
If you are unfamiliar with Regedit, then ensure you know how to
restore your Registry in case of error and it is a good idea to export
any key before deleting.

Check the startup (Start-Run-MSCONFIG-Startup tab) for any unknown
items if it is reset on reboot.

If you use SpyBot's Immunize feature, then you can unlock in Tools-IE
Tweaks-"Lock IE Control Panel"
