The security settings tag is missing in IE for a user,
despite the fact that she is an administrator. How can i
get that back?
thanks!

1. Check for virus and adware

Housecall Online Scan

or
Symantec Security Check
http://security.symantec.com/sscv6/default.asp?langid=ie&venid=sym

SpyBot S&D searches your harddisk for so-called spy- or adbots;

or
Adaware

2. If no joy, perform a repair of Internet Explorer. From Control Panel
select Add/Remove Programs. Scroll down to Microsoft Internet Explorer and
highlight it. Click on the Add/Remove button. When the IE Tools menu comes
up, select Repair. Click OK.

3. If repairing does not work, uninstall and reinstall IE. At the same IE
Tools menu, select "Restore the previous Windows configuration". Then
reinstall Internet Explore.

You can also access the IE Toolbar by clicking Start > Run and type
