Is there anyway to programmaticly extract all the Internet Options (at least
Advanced settings) to a web page or text file? Alternatively, are these
viewable in a text-based (XML?) file on my PC?
 
You can try this:
Internet Explorer Backup - BackRex Software:
http://www.backsettings.com/internet-explorer-backup.html

If you don't want everything, you can probably get want you want from
these Registry keys:

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]

Thx for the info.

I've reviewed these registry entries. Although I see some correlation there
between IE's Internet Options --> Advanced Settings page, it's not clear
where all of these settings are in the registry. Is there a Microsoft
document or IDE help entry (I have VS.NET 2003) which maps these registry
entries to their counterparts in the Advanced Settings page? Or perhaps, an
IE developer's guide?

I don't know of any documentation.

What settings don't you follow?
