I got a call from an employee where I work today and she was hitting an internal site that uses a signed applet. She got the security warning, went to More Options and told it never to install. :roll:

Does anyone know how to reset that so that it pops up again?

For Windows Xp Pro and IE Users

go to Tools->Internet Options->Advanced->Security and uncheck the option "Allow active content to run in files on My computer"

That doesn't make sense. She told *one* program to *never* run. It's not a global option. It is specific for that site. Other ActiveX and Signed Applets run just fine and she gets the security warning. Just not for this one site anymore.

That is for running code locally, not on the net!

I do not have an XP machine around nor the new version of IE, I am sure it is under one of the many buttons in the control panel. I will hunt around when I get home to my tablet.

I found it. Internet Options - Content - Certificates - Untrusted Publishers - Remove whatever.
