Limited account users cannot view webpages via IE. The
Admin works fine, how can I allow LTD users to be able to
view pages?
 
Hi there Jamie,

Here is a quote from [www.kellys-korner-xp.com]

Guest Account Cannot Access the Internet on a Dial Up Connection

For users who use the Guest account: After applying this Registry edit, if
you use Fast User Switching, you can log on to an account (Limited or
Administrator) and establish a Dialup Networking Connection. After the
connection is established, you can use Fast User Switching to "switch" to
the Guest account and the Guest account will have Internet Access.

To work around this behavior, you need to add the KeepRASConnections value
to the Registry.

1. Start the Registry Editor by clicking Start, Run and entering
REGEDIT.EXE. Click OK.
2. Expand the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE branch and locate the
Software\Microsoft\Windows
NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon sub-branch.
3. Right click on a blank area of the right pane and select New, String
value.
4. Name the new string value: KeepRASConnections
5. Double click the KeepRASConnections value and enter a "1", without the
quotes, for the value data. Click OK.
6. Close the Registry Editor by clicking File, Exit
7. Close all applications and reboot the computer.
8. When the computer has rebooted, log on to a Regular or Administrator User
account and establish the Dialup Networking
Connection.

Hi Jamie,

Limited users have the ability to access/connect to the internet. Your best bet is to scan for spyware. Visit www.lavasoftusa.com and download Ad-Aware. Scan the system and eliminate the parasites. If this does not help, you need to disable third-party browser extensions to see if that solves the problem. If yes, use Toolbarcop to eliminate the malware BHO causing this problem.

Disable third-party browser extensions in Internet Explorer
1. Click Start, Run, and type inetcpl.cpl. [or control inetcpl.cpl]
2. Click the Advanced tab.
3. Under Browsing, clear the Enable third-party browser extensions
(requires restart) check box.
4. Restart Internet Explorer.

Using ToolbarCop to remove the unwanted Toolband, Toolbar Icons and BHO:
