No, seriously ;-)

I'm trying to write a Group Policy to allow certain ActiveX controls to
load on machines without local admin privileges. This is what I've come
up with, but for some reason it won't work. Anyone out there ever done
this before? What have I done wrong?


************************************************************
CLASS USER
CATEGORY "Windows Components"
CATEGORY "Internet Explorer"
CATEGORY "Administrator Approved Controls"
KEYNAME
"Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet
Settings\AllowedControls"


POLICY "Allowed ActiveX"
EXPLAIN "Allows specific ActiveX to run"
PART "Promax Logon" CHECKBOX
VALUENAME {ED5BE7F4-9C97-4013-8838-48C20128D73A}
VALUEON NUMERIC 0
VALUEOFF NUMERIC 1
END PART
END POLICY


END CATEGORY ;; AdminApproved
END CATEGORY ;; Internet Explorer
END CATEGORY ;; WindowsComponents

****************************************************************

Valuename is the ID # from the control in the downloaded program files,
and the policy shows up, and is enabled in the GPO snap-in.

Maybe it is applied and your link order is screwed up?
