RETSRICTIONS!!!

-----Original Message-----
When I try to access the 'internet options' button in
the 'tools' menu I receive a message that
says, "Restrictions. This operatin has been cancelled due
to restrictions in effect on this computer. Please
contact your system administrator." Any help on resolving
this would be GREATLY appreciated. Thankyou.

I had the same problem and received the correct solution
from Alan Edwards, MS MVP W95/98 Systems...I hope it's
okay to quote him...
Use Regedit.exe and search for NoBrowserOptions and remove
it. It is most likely to be here (but not necessarily)
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Inte rnet\Expl
orer\Restrictions (THIS WORKED FOR ME)
If you are unfamiliar with Regedit, then ensure you know
how to restore your Registry in case of error and it is a
good idea to export any key before deleting.

Check the startup (Start-Run-MSCONFIG-Startup tab) for any
unknown items if it is reset on reboot.

You might try this snippet 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" '
