Internet Explorer 6 - Options restriction

[stevieb]

I currently have a works laptop, and have installed my broadband account on this with usernames and passwords.

But under the Connections tab everything is greyed out. is there anyway i can use regedit to enable this control again, so i can remove my broadband connection from the list!

Thanks

Steve

Start>Run>gpedit.msc

It'll be in there somewhere

This only applies to XP Pro mind.

I get an error message

snapin creation failed to initialise!

Assuming this is a group policy thing. Have you got local admin rights on the laptop? If so, use regedit and delete stuff under HKCU/Software/Policies. This should render the options accessible again (untill you reboot). *or* call your IT bods.
