I know this isin't a technical forum (I already posted on one) but the Lurkers have been proven to be very knowledgable, so I'll give this post a shot here too. I am currently running IE 6.0 SP 2 on windows XP SP 2 and I am logged in as the system Administrator.
After downloading the Google Toolbar, I suddenly lost the ability to access Internet Options... in the Tools drop-down. When I try clicking on Internet Options..., a box pops up called "Restrictions" and states the following:
I emailed Google.toolbar about my problem and they gave me a link to this site:
I use a program called Regalyzer to view and edit my registry, however the problem is that there is no "\Internet Explorer\Restrictions" in the key listing as stated on the Microsoft support site. There is an Outlook Express, but no Internet Explorer. In the second key listed by Microsoft support, there is no "\Restrictions" in the \Toolbars key. It simply does not exist! The only thing I can think of that might be causing these keys to be misplaced is that I'm using SP 2 and that troubleshooting faq is for SP 1.
So my question is, does anyone know the correct registry keys I should edit in SP 2 to regain access to my Internet Options...?
