Administrator status not functioning...but still lists me
logged in as "administrator" after reboot
- Windows XP with SP-2
- IE 6.0.2800, SP-1

This error just started...I attempted to
check "Tools"..."Internet Option...received this message...
...."RESTRICTIONS - this operation has been cancelled due
to restrictions in effect on this computer. Please
contact your system administrator."

I rebooted, and computer shows me logged in as the system
administrator...with the same error message.
Any suggestions appreciated.
