Hi,

Could someone tell me how to get rid of the yellow bar under the tool bars "your current security settings put your computer at risk..." on Win XP SP2, IE7?

There was a previous post regarding this but I was not successful following it.

Thanks.

Hi,
Go to Control Panel> Security Center> Change the way Security Center alerts
me. Make changes.

If unsuccessful with that, are you running XP Home, Pro or Media Center?

Hope this helps,

Thank you for your reply. My system is XP Home.
As you suggested, I went to control panel/security/change alerts/ but all
options were unchecked (no alerts).
Solution, please?

I have XP SP 2 and wanted to get rid of this information bar. I did
some searching and found this guy's explanation:

It worked for me. Good luck.

This solution worked for me. If you have automatic updates enabled, be
aware that in typical Microsoft fashion you may be fed automatic updates you
didn't ask for and don't have the ability to decline, which re-enable the
policy setting, sending you back to square one (IE7 itself was such an
update).

Also, the GP editor itself is a bit buggy and never actually confirms the
updated setting after a change is applied. It still reads "disabled" here
even when changed to "enable" and applied. To confirm I had "enable"
selected I had to fire up IE7 and try a couple different URLs to confirm that
this ridiculous pain-in-the-arse info bar was finally turned off.
