[AHF]

Hi,

After install the IE 7 a security alert message is displayed by XP before starting our application


How can I avoid this message ?
How can the application be made secured to XP?

If you are running your app from a server you will need to go to the desktops effected and add the server IP to the 'trusted' sites tab in Internet options... Vista is the same way.

Ricki,

The IP-address of my server is 10.0.0.1.

I added this IP-address to my trusted sites in my internet options.

1. What do I add : 10.0.0.1 or http://10.0.0.1 ?

2. I tried both ways, but no change. The question about security stays appearing.

What do I do wrong ?

Thanks.

Only from curiosity what is the name of your exe?
In VISTA I have these problems with names including update, setup, install

Its not a file name problem. I have several application names and all have the same problem. I'm going to test it but its probably and IP trust site probelm as this situation only begun to occurr when IE was updated to version 7.

AHF,

I found this link : http://www.mcse.ms/message1030070.html

And here is said :

Open Internet Explorer
Click on Tools
Click on Internet Options
Click on Security
Click on Local intranet
Click on Sites
Make sure Automatically detect intranet network is checked
Click on Advanced
Add the name of your server to this zone
Click Close

I tried it out and it works.

Good luck.

All,

Isn't there some way to do this via the registry?

Thanks,

Randal,

under this key

Code: Select all

HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\ZoneMap\Domains\

create a new key with the domain name (without http://)
Under this key create a key "http" with the zone number as its value.
