IE Security Zones, A Registry Roadmap

Here is a very useful collection of registry keys and values that you can leverage to configure Internet Explorer. In my environment, we use Desktop Standard's Policy Maker to push registry changes with Group Policy.

For those of you not familiar with Policy Maker, it is an application that snaps into the GPMC (Group Policy Management Console) and allows you to push individual registry changes in a very straight forward manner. Desktop Standard was purchased earlier this year by MS and according to the Desktop Standard website, Policy Maker will be part of the GPMC in Windows Server 2008.

Regardless of how you deploy registry changes to your clients, KB 182569 is a great resource for keys and values that you can use to configure Internet Explorer 5.01 SP2 and later.
