Guest RJK Posted September 30, 2007 Posted September 30, 2007 Anyone researched the use of this dynamic link library used by Steve Gibsons website | Shields Up facility which, appears to alter IE7's Internet Zone security setting, (when URL changes to https://www.grc.com/x/ne.dll?bh0bkyd2 ), i.e. the Internet Zone slider disappears and "Custom Settings" have taken effect ? regards, Richard ps ...asked this a while ago and got shouted at by one or two people who instantly rushed to the defense of Steve Gibson but, when I asked them to replicate the above effect, they then remained strangely quiet, and were never heard from again.
Guest RJK Posted September 30, 2007 Posted September 30, 2007 Re: grc.com | ne.dll oops ! ..and scratch that. It seems that almost anything can knock IE7 Internet Security Zone setting fromslider "High" to custom. ....anyone know what's cuasing my Internet Explorer 7 Internet Zone "High" setting to keep changing from "High" to "Custom" ?

Guest RJK Posted September 30, 2007 Posted September 30, 2007 Re: grc.com | ne.dll ....oh,...so simple, yet it took so long for the penny to drop ! ....when the IE7 box pops up advising that outgoing information could be seen by anyone on the web, and one clicks okay to porceed, e.g. a Google search where one has typed in couple of key search words into Gogle's slot, THIS is when IE7's Security Internet Zone switches itself from "High" to "Custom" regards, Richard "RJK" <notatospam@hotmail.com> wrote in message news:Oxxk3J2AIHA.1208@TK2MSFTNGP03.phx.gbl... > oops ! ..and scratch that.
