Re: Windows 2003 security issue

Thanks Steven for the suggestions. I have tried everything you said but no
go. However, there is some difference in the error when I created a new user
(with admin rights). It looked as though it was going to work when it asked
for the web site to be added into the trusted zone & lower its security.
When done, it asked for the same action but acknowledges that the site is
already added when I tried to add again.So I cannot get past this block -
same issue. IE must be stuffed.
