6. Set IE to catch

Microsoft Internet Explorer allows us to easily navigate through the internet, but to make good use of Internet Explorer, We must configure it. In the Internet Options window of IE browser, comprehensive setting options are provided (for example: "Homepage", "Temporary Folder", "security level", "hierarchical Review", and other projects), but some advanced functions are not provided, and these functions can be easily implemented through group policies. Let's take a look at the specific example below:

Location: "Group Policy console → user configuration → management template → Windows Components → Internet Explorer (you need to add the inetres. ADM template file )"

1. Disable the "open in New window" menu item (Windows 2000/XP/2003)

For security considerations, it is sometimes necessary to block some functional menus of IE. The Group Policy provides a wide range of settings, such as disabling "Save... "," file "," new ", etc. The following describes how to set "Disable" to enable "menu items" in a new window.

Open "Group Policy console → user configuration → management template → Windows Components → Internet Explorer → browser menu ", enable "enable" and set "enable" to "enable ". When this policy is enabled, you can right-click a link and click open in a new window. This policy can be used with "'file' menu disabling 'new' menu item". The latter prohibits users from clicking the "file" menu to point to "new ", click "window" to open the browser in the new window (as shown in figure 8, the "New> window" project is no longer available ).

Tip: After this policy is enabled, you cannot open the link in the new window by clicking the "open in New window" command. The system will prompt that the command is invalid, the window opened automatically on the webpage is also disabled. In fact, this can also shield the pop-up advertisement window.

2. Restrict IE browser's saving function (Windows 2000/XP/2003)

When using IE to browse Web pages,ArticleYou can use the "Save as" function to save resources to a local hard disk. When multiple people share a computer, to keep the hard disk clean, you need to restrict the browser's storage function. How can we achieve this? You can do this: Open "Group Policy console → user configuration → manage template → Windows Components → Internet Explorer → browser menu", and then click "'file' menu in the right pane: disable 'Save... 'menu item' and 'file' menu: Disable "Save As webpage menu item" and "'view' menu: enable all policy items such as 'source' menu item "and" Disable context menu.

If you do not want others to modify the settings of IE, you can enable the "'tool' menu: Disable 'Internet options... '" policy. In addition, other projects can be disabled in this pane as needed.

3. Disable the "Internet Options" Control Panel (Windows 2000/XP/2003)

As mentioned above, the "Disable Internet option" function can be used to prevent others from setting Internet Explorer casually. However, this method cannot specifically disable the control template project in the Internet option, which makes the specific application troublesome. This requirement can be achieved through the following group policy setting method:

Open "Group Policy console → user configuration → management template → Windows Components → Internet Explorer → Internet control panel ", in the right pane, You can see group policy items such as "Disable General page" and "disable security page. The following uses the "Disable General page" as an example: Open the "Disable General page" in the right pane and set it to "enable ". Then, open the Internet option control panel and you will find that the "regular" project is no longer available (figure 9 ), in this way, the user will not be able to see and change the settings of the home page, cache, history, webpage appearance, and auxiliary functions, because this policy will delete the "General" tab on the interface, therefore, if this policy is set, you do not need to set policies in "user configuration> management template> Windows Components> Internet Explorer", such as "Disable or change homepage Settings" or "Disable or change color settings.

4. Do not modify the homepage of IE browser (Windows 2000/XP/2003)

If you do not want others to modify the homepage of your IE browser, you can choose "Group Policy console> User Configuration> management template> Windows Components> Internet Explorer> toolbar ", then select the "Disable and modify homepage Settings" Group Policy and enable it. In addition, the "change history Settings", "change color settings", and "Change Temporary Internet File Settings" items are disabled in this pane.

After this policy is enabled, the settings in the "home page" area on the "General" tab of the "Internet Options" dialog box of IE will become grayed out.

Tip: If you set the "Disable General page" policy in "Group Policy console> User Configuration> management template> Windows Components> Internet Explorer control panel, you do not need to set this policy because the "Disable General page" policy deletes the "General" tab on the interface.
