I had an amusing session on a W2003 server the other day. The IE in W2003
defaults to "Internet Explorer Enhanced Security Configuration is
enabled".

I visited
http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/downloads/updates/sp/vs6/sp5/mmenglish.aspx
to download some stuff for making Visual Basic installation files.

I had to DISABLE the "enhanced security configuration" (using
Add/Remove Programs, Windows Components) before I could download the single
file that I needed! (I already had the site in my Trusted zones - not
enough.)

I also find it amusing that when I have to download an executable from any
web site, I have to ADD that site to my Trusted sites. I can't just say
"Yes, I promise to check this download carefully before I run
it!". I have to make the whole site "trusted". Who knows
what a trusted site can do when I click a button on their web site?

The final idiocy is that when I add a site to Trusted, the stupid IE
gravely warns me that I am trusting the site for everything. I scream back
"YES I KNOW YOU IDIOT - I JUST WANT THE ONE EXPLETIVE FILE!".
