Hello,

We would like to give access to a few pages in IE 6.0 accessed from
Tools-->Internet Options. I have figured out how to give access to the
specific pages, but for some reason when users click on Internet Options,
they get an error that "The operation has been canceled due to restricitons
on the computer". So what I need is the GPO setting to allow users to use
Tools --> Internet Options.

Can somebody show me the way?

The error is suggesting that the following policy is enabled and is applying
to the users in some policy:
User Configuration\Administrative Templates\Windows Components\Internet
Explorer\Browser menus
"Tools menu: Disable Internet Options... menu option"

You would need to disable or non-define that setting. Then re-apply the
policies.

A GPRESULT would be help full in confirming that policy was set and which
policy it is coming from.

We may also need to know the role of the computer. Is it a terminal server?

I dont have the Browser Menus option in my group policies. Do I need to load
an .adm to get that subdirectory?

Thanks,

You need to add the inetres.adm file to the GPO in Administrative Tools or
maybe an updated one.
