Restrictions on Internet Options

[Michael]

I have contracted (and cleaned) some malicious softwear
but am left with a residual problem.
I cannot access the Internet Options under the Tools pull
down menu.
When I attempt to use this function, I get a message
stating "This operation has been cancelled due to
restrictions in effect on this computer. Please contact
your administrator".

it works from control panel.

Any ideas??

Thanks in advance

Michael

To unlock the Internet Options, follow these steps:
1. Quit all instances of Internet Explorer
2. Open Regedit.exe, navigate to this branch:

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\
Restrictions]

3. Delete the "NoBrowserOptions" Binary value

4. Close Registry Editor, restart IE.

Excellent, now the only problem is that the Home Page
section is greyed out.

Any advice?

Thanks again
