| Guest | Strange behaviour when using IE7 on Vista Hi, This may not be the right place for this question but I could only find IE7 in a non-Englilsh newsgroup. If there is one please point me towards it - there are none listed in Windows Mail. Now to the question - I put security 'Tools-Internet Options-Securiy and Privacy' on high for all of them. Noe, in all previous versions of IE if I did that I would not be able to browse the Web. But in IE 7 these settings to High do not seem to do anything. Am I doing somthing wrong!! |

| Guest | Re: Strange behaviour when using IE7 on Vista First of all, How? I have set it to block all incoming connections (Control Panel - Windows firewall - General - On - Block all incoming connections) and I can still browse the web. Secondly, what purpose do these Internet Options - Security settings serve, if they are allowing me to browse. I know in IE6 and prior to that, as far as I can remember, one would set the security to High and then add sites to exceptions list. Is that a step forward!!!

Did you close IE and reopen it? Were the settings still on high?

| Guest | Re: Strange behaviour when using IE7 on Vista Yes settings were on High. The machine has been started a few times, settings are on High and still everything gets through. Thanks for the ponters I shall have a look at them.
