Re: All sites considered Local Zone

The problem may be that somehow entries in your registry have been changed.
You will need to have a good knowledge of the registry to make these changes
and I would suggest that you refer the problem to your support staff if
possible. They may also be the cause of the problem if your computer is
networked and administered centrally.

The Registry Key for Zones is

HKCU \Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\Zones\0-4,
"DisplayName"
Where Zone\3 = Internet, 0=My Computer etc
and
DisplayName is what is displayed in the Internet Options dialog.

So what appears to have happened in your case is that the display name of
"Internet" has been assigned to the Zone #0 =My Computer

I am not sure if repairing IE will correct the problem for you. I can only
imagine that your network administrator (or your ISP if you are using a
branded version of IE) has made this booboo. Ask them in the first instance.

If you know how check your registry under this key

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet
Settings\Zones

and that you have Zones 0-4 and they are correctly labeled.
