Please will some kind soul remind me how to eliminate this restriction when I try to access Tools | Internet Options in IE6/XP Home.

Restrictions
This operation has been cancelled due to restrictions in effect on this computer. Please contact your system administrator.

Another glitch gas also occurred in OE6. If I uncheck Tools | Options | Send | reply to messages in the format that they were sent, OE insists on using HTML instead of plain text.

N.B. I did a complete defrag yesterday but cannot imaging that this would be responsible.

About IE Tools, check this, Martin,

"On the restrictions warning when trying to access Internet Options,
this warning will occur if the inetcpl.cpl file has been deleted,
corrupted, or file name was changed. Verify you have this file."

Hope you can fix it !

Thanks, Pola. This .cpl file is in my SYSTEM32 folder.

Right click on the NG Server | Properties | Advanced tab | and make sure 'Ignore news sending format and post using:' is not checked.

It might have happened when you changed the posting limit to under 100 kb
