Phil-
I'm not sure why this would not be included in one of the XP2 ADMs. A quick
regmon trace shows that this feature is toggled by modifying the following
registry value: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet
Explorer\Main\FeatureControl\FEATURE_LOCALMACHINE_LOCKDOWN\iexplore.exe
 
So I'm guessing you could create a custom ADM to do this pretty easily.

Not quite. With Internet Explorer 6 and XP SP2 under Tools - Internet
Options - Advanced  there is a check box to Allow active content to run in
files on My Computer. I can see the option to manage most settings under the
Advanced tab but not this one...

Does anybody know if this IE security setting can be controlled via GPO?
