If you're using a Windows 2000 or higher network (servers and workstations), you can use Group Policy (Edit your local IE settings as you want them to be for all users, then Create / edit a policy, go to User Configuration/Windows Settings/Internet Explorer Maintenance/Security, click "Import the current security zones and privacy settings", and then you can edit from there. IF you follow this method, I STRONGLY suggest you use a single station for all GPO updates in your network - there's a small problem with service packs potentially causing all GPO settings to be lost due to date-checking of GPO modules. The other option that I'm aware of is a product called ScriptLogic (again, only MS-network aware, but I'm willing to bet a good Netware admin can get it to run for all user's logon script with little prodding) which runs on NT4 and higher networks, which will allow you to set a host of registry settings at logon. www.scriptlogic.com If you're a programmer, use the registry settings Thor just emailed.
