Whether coincidence or not, since applying the critical
update this morning (Security bulletin/MS03-008), I have
lost the ability to use Tools/Internet Options in IE6.
When I attempt to select this function, I get an error
message to the effect that I do not have permission to use
this function. Hmmmmmm? Applications that make calls to
functions within Tools/Internet Options (i.e., to delete
history, cache, etc.) such as X-Cleaner, Symantec/Norton
CleanSweep et al are not prohibited, however.

Anyone else lose this functionality since applying the
patch, or is it possibly related to something else?

Thanks,
Chuck
