The Internet Explorer Maintenance preference mode is designed to provide initial settings for a user without enforcing these settings. For example, the user may set the corporate intranet portal page as the home page. If no other restrictions apply, the user may modify these settings. When an Internet Explorer Maintenance policy is in preference mode, the policy will only be applied to a client computer again when the policy has changed. At that time, the new preferences will be introduced on the client computer. For more information about the preference mode and other issues that could cause the symptoms that are described in this article, click the following article numbers to view the articles in the Microsoft Knowledge Base: 325342<http://support.microsoft.com/kb/325342/> (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/325342/ ) How to use Group Policy to configure advanced settings for Internet Explorer in Windows Server 2003 306915 <http://support.microsoft.com/kb/306915/> ( http://support.microsoft.com/kb/306915/ ) Internet Explorer Maintenance Group Policies do not apply during subsequent logons procedures reference: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/825685 //JK On Thu, Feb 5, 2009 at 10:10 AM, Steve Crompton <xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>wrote: > Hi > > Can someone please explain how Internet Explorer Maintenance "Preference > Mode" works ? > > Regards > > Steve > > ------------------------------ > Windows Live Hotmail just got better.
