Re: IE Advanced/Security settings

I was referring to the last section of the maint/adv group as it appears
in the IE Options windows. The 'Security' block at the bottom has about
16 choices in the IE dialog box, but only 2 GP settings in the GP
Editor. The full maint/adv page has more, yes.

I imported wuau.adm to get all my firewall settings and WSUS stuff
(can't remember which) a while back and that worked nicely. I guess I
am looking for a bit more in the way of IE settings that I can push via
domain group policy.

The IEAK stuff seems vastly overkill for what I'm trying to do - we
don't 'deploy' IE, its just installed on our workstations and I can't
get past the part where it wants to do a bunch of stuff to our IE
Deployment environemnt - because we don't have one.

I don't really want to have to wade throuhg 300+ registry change
deployments, either. I've been able to do all the settings I've needed
up to this point in the group policy stuff and I'd really like to stick
with that way of doung things - I just need more templates (or options
within the templates or whatever).

Makse sense?
