Internet Protected mode: Off

I'm trying to enable protected mode of IE7 (Vista 5744).

Clicked on the status bar, where it displays "Internet Protected mode: Off".
It then opens the settings dialog, I check "protected mode" (requires
restarting").
Ok, close IE, restart.
"Internet Protected mode: Off".
Repeat the steps... check protected mode, ok, restrart IE.
"Internet Protected mode: Off".

This gets boring... How to enablle the #$&! thing?? Any ideas?

Regartds,
--PA

Hello,

Have you turned off UAC? Internet Explorer Protected Mode requires that you
have user account control activated.

Hi,
If you have UAC off; protected mode in IE7 won't work; at least that's
been my experience.
