I have a need to setup a warehouse computer that can access only a limited
group of websites. In particular, I wish to limit the access to UPS.com,
fedex.com, and probably a couple other shipping companies.
Can IE 6.0 be set up to do this on its own or do I need a third party
product? If I need another product, can someone recommend some?
 
In Don Varnau <don_04[at]varnau[dot]org> had this to say:

My reply is at the bottom of your sent message:
Hi,
IE's Content Advisor should be able to do this.
267930 - How to Configure Internet Explorer 5.x to Block Access to
All But Approved Internet Sites:

This tweak works fine with IE6.

Don,

What I want to know is who had the time to come up with that? Who thought of
that? LOL I've been using IE and Windows for eons it seems though I'm the
ONLY convert from UNIX to Windows you'll probably ever meet. I am impressed
as the day is long and continue to be so. I had typed out a rather long
response and then looked at your answer, saw the link, had seen Sandi post
it in the past, and decided to click on it... Needless to say I'd scrapped
my original post (as I often do) and just sat to think about it. Who, in
their right mind, thought this stuff up?

Anyone ever actually consider the lines of code involved in Windows? They're
ticked when it fails. I'm amazed when it works.

Don,
The link you provided gave instructions for every O/S except XP. Will this
tweak work on IE6 and WinXP?
