Guest T_M_P Posted November 30, 2007 Posted November 30, 2007 Hi All, I applied some restrictions via Local Group Policy to a pc with Windows 2000 SP4 and Internet Explorer 6.0 Sp1. I have an intranet application that need to open a new page of IE when the user click a button on this application, but when they do it, they receive the message: "The operation has been canceled due to restrictions in effect on this computer. Please contact your system administrator." Ok, I'm the system administration and I really don't know what is the exact setting that is preventing the user to use the application. I tried to disable the User Configuration part of the Local Policy and it works so I think the problem is there, but I cannot find the exact parameter. Can you help me? Thanks Everybody!

I'm on an XP PC at the moment so some of these details may be different locations. If this is on a local PC then goto the connections tab in IE properties LAN Settings button Use a proxy server pointing to 127.0.0.1 (ie the local machine so web access is killed) Tick the box that says Bypass proxy server for local addresses This should allow your intranet page to still work Then in gp editor disable the display of the connections tab then the user cannot alter the settings HTH? -- Steve Parry MCP MVP http://www.gwynfryn.co.uk

Ok, I found the solution: under User Configuration\Administrative Templates\Windows Components\Internet Explorer\Browser Menu there is the policy: "Disable Open in New Window menu option". I disabled it and now it works.
