IE 6 webbrowser control on XP SP2

[Binh Nguyen-Huu]

On XP SP2 the webbrowser control doesn't allow access to items
in special folders like 'Control Panel' (click is disabled).

On W2K you can access all items in special folders via an embedded
webbrowser control !

How can I reanable this behavior on XP SP2 ?

Can anyone from the IE Team explain this to me ?

Can I further extend this question.

I am using an embedded IE control on an application I am working on, to
render XML pages. Before SP2, it was simply a matter of calling the
Navigate() function to go to these pages, however now, when I call this
function it "downloads" a copy, and then opens it in a new instance of
internet explorer, rather than opening it in the IE control.
