If you were running a local web server, you could use its DHCP-assigned
IP address to go out and back in to connect to your web server to apply
the changes in security settings that you have been making in the
Internet security zone. That security zone is when you are making
connects external to your host (even if all you do is use the external
interface of your NIC to connect to a local web server). Those settings
do NOT apply when you are trying to render a page locally which appears
to be what you are doing. You need to add the My Computer security zone
to Internet Options so you can adjust your *local* security settings.
See Microsoft's KB article #315933 on how to add the My Computer
security zone to Internet Options. Normally this zone is not displayed.
Or, like I said, go out and back in through your NIC's external IP
address to your web server to see that page so then the Internet
security zone gets applied.
