In case you use Spybot there´s a ability to restrict that way. I don´t know
the names in english, but can you go through
"Arbeitsplatz"-"Systemsteuerung"-"Internetoptionen"?

If you use Spybot here´s the way where you probably restricted that item:

-Start Spybot in "Advanced Mode"
-Go to "Tools"
-Go to "IE Tweaks"

You can see three fields on the right to check up. If the third one is
checked - that´s the restriction!

I hope, i could help - although my english is not the best....
