Is it possibile with IE7 to create a local policy to allow a user to browse
only some specific websites and block the rest?
If yes, is it possibile to use wildcards such as *.gooddomain.com?

Thanks in advance - Gabriele.

Thanks for your answer.
I would like to set Content Advisor via GPO, but I'm not a great fan of
IEM... is there any other alternative?

I've seen that CA configs are written at
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\policies\Ratings, perhaps
there's a ready GPO ADM that I can use! :-)

Thanks - Gabriele.
