Unable to access Tools/Internet Optios in I.E. - Restricted

H

HawaiiDiver

Am using XP-Pro with two accounts the first as an administrator and the
second as a user (Both accounts having different names)

While using I.E Version 6.0 as the user when I click on the tools and then
internet options. I get a message saying Restrictions "This operation has
been cancelled dye to restrictions on this computer. Please contact your
system administrator. "

For what it's worth this problem seems to have started after I had changed
the Administrator password.

Also I am still able to access the internet options as the user via the
control panel.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Happy July 4th to all!

You have set group policy which prevents accessing internet options from
browser. See these registry keys:
"HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Internet
Explorer\Restrictions\NoBrowserOptions" and
"HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Internet
Explorer\Restrictions\NoBrowserOptions"

Ensure that both values are either deleted or set to 0.
