When attempting to open Internet Options via Internet Explorer, the following message is received:
"Restrictions. This operation has beec cancelled due to restrictions in effect on this computer. Please contact your system administrator."

To resolve:
- Open SpyBot - Search and Destroy
- Click Tools > IE Tweaks
- Uncheck the following:
- "Lock IE start page setting against user changes"
- "Lock IE control panel against opening from within"
- Run full scan of system with SpyBot
Comms Refresh (98/ME)
IMPORTANT
If the end user has ZoneAlarm installed, have them go into ZoneAlarm Control Center > Program Control and allow full access to everything listed. Then fully uninstall it.
Also ensure they have their Windows 98/Windows ME Installation CD-ROM as this will be helpful to locate the cab files needed for the Comms Refresh.
Remove Comms as normal but do not reboot.
Go to Start > Run > regedit and remove the following keys:
Windows 98
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\RemoteAccess
Windows ME
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\RemoteAccess
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\Winsock
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\Winsock2
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\VXD\AFVXD
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\VXD\DHCP
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\VXD\MSTCP
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\VXD\Winsock
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\VXD\Winsock2
At this point, reboot the system and reinstall Comms.
