You can via GPO in AD 2k or 2003. To set an IE GPO in 2k: Start>Programs>Administrative Tools>Active Directory Users and Computers >[OU Name]>Rt-click>Properties>|Group Policy|New|Edit: >User Configuration>Windows Settings>Internet Explorer Maintenance>Security >dbl-click 'Security Zones and Content Ratings' and select 'Import Current Security Zones' and then click |Modify Settings|. note: you can't set a GPO on a CN; has to be an OU. If you are looking for a programmatic solution, you could use ADSI and script your own enterprise-wide settings/changes. You can do about anything with Windows you want through ADSI using VB Script, Perl, or anything else it supports. Of course if you're using AD I think using a GPO is simplest.
