this'll teach me for allowing windows updates, as ms seems to be the only one who ever manages to bugger my streamlined and efficient setup
anyway...
wtf is this "open file - security warning" thing?!
it looks like a security centre warning but i have that service disabled
is it related to an ie6 hotfix/update that downloaded?
i haven't used ie since the days of mozilla suite. i have it locked down to the point that it can only perform its function within windows core
i want this nagging piece of sh!t gone
i already have a good firewall that i'm happy to have nag me - as i choose to run it that way
some googling on the subject pointed to things like servers and shares. i have all functions and services related to anything other than straightforward web access using tcp/ip switched off. anything related to anything "remote" is disabled also
i tried someone's suggestion of adding NO_ZONE_CHECKS, with the value 1, to environment variables under "user variables". when that didn't work 100% (in desperate frustration) i added the same under "system variables", which also didn't improve matters
i also looked for other settings related to certificate revocation but am clueless as to where stuff like that may hide
edit: i just found the certificate verification checks under internet options [ie only?] and disabled them but it did f'ck all to resolve my issue. it seems that this function has been ported across into windows core. help!
please somebody help me get rid of this thing. it's like they backdoored uac into my xp install - with no means to switch it off
any help would be seriously appreciated
cheers,
