Tweak of the week
Tweak #16 - november 28, 2001
Last week we explained how access to certain internet options can be restricted.
This set of tweaks lets you disable some more.
Go to the registry key:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Policies\Microsoft
Look for the following subkey:
Internet Explorer
If it doesn't exist, create it.
Navigate to the Internet Explorer key and look for the following subkey:
Control Panel
If it doesn't exist, create it.
Navigate to the Control Panel key. This is where we will add some values.
To disable any of the options, create the corresponding DWord value and set the value to 1.
