I am a novice pc user, and have a problem accessing internet options in
IE7 and Control Panel. I used to be able to access tools in the tool
bar in IE7 so I could change my security settings etc., but after trying to
change my settings in "Set programs access+defaults", I know I have done
something wrong. I am using Windows XP, with IE7, Zone Alarm, Avast!
Antivirus, Spybot S&D. I have tried all the things I have read in
MS help groups, but had no luck. Whenever I click on the internet
options folder it just flickers for a second, but does not open. Also there are
2 pop up icons on the lower part off my EI7 browser. By following the help
pages I have read, I have tried inetcpl.cpl & gpedit.msc. But this is like
trying to fix something I know I will never be able to do by myself.

It "reads" like a malware infection to me.. they will block Internet
Options from running.

Download Malwarebytes, install, update the definitions, and run. That's
easier than it reads; just click the following link, save the file to
the Desktop where you can double-click the icon, and install it.

One or more of your Spybot settings or Residents may be denying access to
Internet Options.
