woody Posted January 15, 2007 Posted January 15, 2007 What is it that is controlling the security settings in IE on our network. The default level is set to medium, but I can't seem to lower that or change individual settings on any PC on the network, even when logged in as the local administrator. I've checked in group policy to see if a policy is controlling this setting but I can't find one. I created a policy that set the security level to low, but after logging in and out on a PC a few times, and even restarted the PC just to give the policy time to kick in, the settings still remain at Medium. What's going on here? I only want to enable active X to install latest flash player.
mattx Posted January 17, 2007 Posted January 17, 2007 I take it you have changed the policy at the correct level and that your GP inhertiance is correct ? Where are you making the change in the policy ? User Config-->Admin Templates-->Windows Com-->IE ?
woody Posted January 17, 2007 Author Posted January 17, 2007 Thans for reply mattx. It is only for staff that I am trying to change the policy. Firstly, I can't understand why I am not able to change the settings on a client when logged in as staff - I haven't got any restriction applied in any of the inherited GPs. I have tried to change the following area of GP: Userconfig > Windows Settings > Internet Explorer maintenance > Security. It didn't seem to have an effect. I checked the User Config > Admin Templates > Windows Components >IE and there's nothing set there. Hope this gives you more of a picture as to what is happening
