The advanced tab does not show

Hi,
The advanced tab in Internet options does not show after I upgraded IE for
the MSN site. Is this a problem?

Its is a problem often caused by parasites, so read here:

To fix the immediate problem:

Start-Run-Regedit
There could be more than one "AdvancedTab" value.
Try these keys first and then search for AdvancedTab (no space)

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Internet
Explorer\Control Panel

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Internet
Explorer\Control Panel

Remove "AdvancedTab" if present.
