1. I've seen that on one of my machines [remind me to call PSS and
figure out what's up, I suspect a reg key], but all others have not done
that.
2. Driver issue [file that under stuff happens]
3. Yeah, some of the web site authors have obviously not read the SP2
memo..... I have to add to the trusted sites all banking sites, a couple
of travel sites, etc and this is why I've added to my computers that
have sp2 a shortcut bar to adding sites to the trusted site zone.
and yes, this works on IE6, sp2
http://www.microsoft.com/windows/ie/previous/webaccess/pwrtwks.mspx
This little IE addition adds a quick shortcut under “Tools” for “add to
trusted sites”. I did this to a couple of people at the office and here
at home and showed them all they have to do when they get to a web site
that they really “need” to have working [like a business site] they can
add the site to the trusted zone and hit “refresh” and voila.

So for any of you people that are heavily involved in webcommerce, etc. You might want to look at the read me's, or some GPO settings to help reduce the impact of this to your environment.
