Dear Igor,

Thanks for the answer. Now I understand that I can programmatically "map
URLs to zone" thru IInternetSecuirtyManager::SetZoneMapping. However, is it
a global setting? I wish that it could be lock to certain processes. It can
cause problems if it's global. For instance, my program launches, and it
maps "about:blank" to trusted site zone. Since it's a global setting, when
the user opens the Internet Explorer, with homepage set to about:blank, this
will be a trusted site. He navigates to other URLs, he'll see the warning
that he's leaving the trusted zone. Even worse, I think some anti-virus
program may disallow such navigation.

Any suggestions?

Best regards,
He Shiming
