Help. Cannot remove network printer from WinXp client machine

[Michael]

When I try to remove the network printer from WinXp
client computer I installed before, the restrictions
message pops up " The operation has been cancelled due to
restrictions in effect on this computer, please contact
your system administrator." But I am system administrator.
Would you please help me to solve this problem?

Many thanks in advance for your help.

Close IE.
Open Regedit.
Find the value NoBrowserOptions and remove every instance of it.

You might try this from Mike Burgess first if you use SpyBot:
'Did you by chance run SpyBot's Immunize feature?
If so, you can unlock by unchecking the option to "Protect IE Control
Panel"
