Re: RESOLVED

I'd like to add my thanks to you for the additional information. I spent 1.5 hours on the Tech support line with Dell this afternoon and tried a number of other suggested fixes without success; however, your suggestion below to edit the 'restictions' registry key cured the problem.

Tks again.

Control Panel] key. However, I changed the Restrictions key (rather than Control Panel) and under that key was a value for NoBrowserOptions. I changed that from a 1 to a 0 and it fixed the problem! I wonder what program set that value? Could Spybot have done that?

Thank you, so much, for your help! I NEVER would have found that.
