Internet Options Trouble

[Guest]

I was recently browsing a website and it said that I didn't have cookies enabled. I went to click on the internet options in the tools menu and upon doing so, I got a message that said "Restrictions: This operation has been cancelled due to restrictions in effect on this computer. Please contact your system administrator." Does anyone know anything about this oir how I could fix it? Thanks

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 to export any
key before deleting.

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

You might try this snippet from Mike Burgess first if you use SpyBot:
'Did you by chance run SpyBot's Immunize feature?
If so, you can unlock by unchecking the option to "Protect IE Control
Panel" '
