Open Regedit (StartRunRegedit), and navigate to this key:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Inte rnet Explorer\Restrictions
Delete the "NoBrowserOptions" value, and reboot.

It may exist here instead:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Int ernet Explorer\Restrictions
or
HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Software\Policies\Microsoft\In ternet Explorer\Restrictions

A simple way to do all this, if you have Windows Scripting host installed, is to go
to Doug Knox' site and download his script to fix it:
http://www.dougknox.com/security/scr...strictions.htm

Right-click his "Download" link, click Save Target As from the menu that appears,
and save it in a folder of your choice. Then double-click it to toggle the
restrictions on or off.

When I am in Internet Explorer 6.0 and want to change my Internet Options if
I go to Tools, then click on Internet Options I get the following message,
"This operation has been canceled due to restrictions in effect on this
computer. Please contact your system administrator. "
I can access Internet Options two other ways, one in Control Panel and by
right clicking on Explorer on the desktop and choosing properties. Does
anyone know how to get the so called restriction canceled so I can use
Internet Options within I.E. 6.0 .
I am using Win98 SE

Thanks
James
