Append Restricted Sites List

[Thomas M]

Windows XP SP2

We need a way to push out a restricted site to all of our computers, and
we need to do it without overwritting the Restricted Sites list on all
computers. The push out of this setting also needs to be as transparent
as possible to the end users.

Where does XP store the Restricted Sites list, and what is the best way
to add a site to the Restriced Sites list on a computer?

Thanks! It looks like the last link is what we need. We tried manually
adding a site to the Restricted Sites list and then searching the registry
for that site name, but we searched only values and not key names. No
wonder we couldn't find the location in the registry.
