Re: Windows 2003 security issue

Yes, I have uninstalled the IE ES for admin & users and it is still popping
up saying that it is enabled. About being linked to some other website that
may be in
a different web content, I can't tell as it is not showing at the bottom
right of the browser.
If it is linked, is it because of that particular file or website that I am
trying to download from. As it is, I can't download from any site, even from
our intranet.
