Hi jayie,

If you have Spybot S&D installed, see if this FAQ helps resolve the problem:

If the above doesn't help or isn't applicable, see if d/loading and running

Beside all the advice you got try this:
Open a run Command and type in:
gpedit.msc click [OK]
On the group Policy locate this option under:
[&] User configuration
[+] Software Settings
[+] Windows Settings
[-] Administrative Templates
[-] Internet Explorer
[+] Application Compatibility
[+]Internet Control Panel
[ ] Offline Pages
[ ] Browser menus = Look in the right Pane/Window for this Option:
[$]Tools menuisable Internet Options... menu option.
Make sure this not Disabled for your account by double clicking it and see
the settings there.
Note you can do any changes unless you are logged as administrator.

Another the registry by opening a run command and type in:
regedit click [OK] and on the Registry editor locate this Key:

[-]HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies
= NoBrowserOptions
Edit if the IE Option is set to 1 set it to Zero.
Close the Registry and Reboot.

No options appear under Settings on the Advanced tab of the "Internet
Options" dialogue box in Windows Internet Explorer 7

Look in the right-hand pane for inetcpl.cpl and if it is there, right-click
on it and select Delete.
