Recently, I decided to upgrade my office’s XP machine’s Internet explorer from version 6 to verion 7 so as to that advantage of tabbed browsing. I am not a fan of IE7 and have been using Firefox mainly, but a lot of our firm’s site only runs on IE (dumb programming practice!) and so I still have to open multiple windows on my desktop.
The first time I fired up IE7, I am faced with the dreaded security settings information bar. And every new window or tab that I create the damn information bar keeps popping up. I cannot blame Microsoft really, it just too many stupid Internet users out there constantly compromising their own machine’s security and those of others (by being a zombie).
Anyway, I thought disabling the information bar would be a common enough complain to provide a solution. Sure enough, google find many complains about this issue, but almost none of those actually provide the correct solution to disable the security settings warning information bar. (more…)
