Export Internet Options from Registry

What Registry keys contain all Internet Options of IE6 under
Windows XP SP2? I'll settle for all minus General,
Connections, & Programs tabs but I do need the Trusted
Sites.
I'm trying to export IE Options to a clone of XP done by
simply copying C partition 2 yrs ago. Tried Tweakomatic
Utility (
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...bd7c-c09646d722c8&DisplayLang=en#Instructions
) but it makes u retrieve & set 1 value at a time rather
than doing all auto.

Your help is MUCH appreciated as well as any other ideas how
to do this. Thanks- bye- Larry


Any advise given is my attempt to show appreciation for all
the excellent help I've received here but I'm no MVP so it
may only apply NUGS (Normally, Usually, Generally, Sometimes :)
 
Most are here:

IE settings:

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\software\microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet
Settings]

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\software\microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet
Settings]

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\software\microsoft\Internet Explorer]
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\software\microsoft\Internet Explorer]

They will cover Trusted Sites
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet
Settings\ZoneMap\Domains

Greetings Alan & thank you for your response which contains
more than I had even hoped for.

Since I'll only do this 1x, exporting keys is probably
easier than installing yet another piece of software. My
only concern is deleting a key like
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\software\microsoft\Internet Explorer] in
XP2 before merging its new definition from XP1 just in case
XP2 has some entry not in XP1. Is it safe to assume this is
NOT the case? I have replaced keys in the past & it's never
been a problem.

Comments/suggestions/corrections appreciated.
Thanks- bye- Larry

I just installed SpywareBlaster which seems to replace the
ActiveX block list & can create a 'System Snapshot = an
"image" of various browser and system settings. Should your
computer ever become infected with spyware, running System
Snapshot could help remove many, if not all, components of
the infection. System Snapshot can also reverse the changes
of many browser hijackers. '

Maybe that includes Internet Options? An experiment is NG
since it only lists changes between now & snapshot. I'll
have to go to their Forum.

Thanks- bye- Larry

I would not assume it is safe, though it should be.
Export the XP2 key first and compare it with the XP1 key before
replacing it.
