Re: file:// problem in IE under IIS vdir

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance

HI.

Thanks, but the posting i telling that it is possible to put the site en a
trusted zone and then it would work. It does not? Tried it, closed the
browser and retried, but same problem. (Wouldn't like to do the regedit on
all clients)

Any ideas?
