WinXP+SP2 IE security information bar enable/disable

J

:)

After installing SP2 I would get a warning from the "security information bar" in IE whenever I visited a website I was working on, because it contained some Javascript.
I messed around wih the security settings and even the registry until I finally got rid of it, but I would like to know the simplest way to enable/disable this info bar, so that I can explain it to the users of the website. (the server has no https, so I can't tell them to put the website in the "trusted" list)
Setting "enable running of scripts" in the internet security settings will enable/disable the javascript, but I never get to see the "security information bar" again, and I'd like to take a screenshot of it :)
Any ideas?

Marc.

ps: I wish MS would stop disabling useful functions in their software and calling it "enhanced security"...

(the server has no https, so I can't tell them to put the website in the "trusted" list)

In Internet Options, click the Security tab. Click on Trusted sites,
click the Sites button. UNcheck the box next to " Require server
verification (https:) for all sites in this zone ".
You can now add sites that do not have https:

The Information bar can be disabled via clicking the Privacy tab, then
clicking the Settings button under Pop-up Blocker and then UNchecking
the " Show Information Bar when a pop-up is blocked " box.
