Whe I try to open Internet Options under the Tools
menu I get this message:
"This operation has been canceled due to restrictions in
effect on this computer. Please contact your system
administrator."
I am the administrator. No restrictions are set that I
know of. Worked fine a while back. The only thing I did
was try Mozilla...did not care for it and removed it.
Could this have done something???
Can anyone help help me with this..... to get
the Internet Options to open?
 
To unlock the Internet Options, follow these steps:
1. Quit all instances of Internet Explorer
2. Open Regedit.exe, navigate to this branch:

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\
Restrictions]

3. Delete the "NoBrowserOptions" Binary value

4. Close Registry Editor, restart IE.
