Trusted Sites

I have a web site that needs to be added to the Trusted Sites. Has anyone
done this through a script of Active X?

Thanks,

stone

Re: Trusted Sites

Hi,

This can be done via GPO (if you have a domain) or by editing the computers
local policy.

Alternatively, this information is stored in the registry (under the
appropriate user's registry hive), so you can definately do this via script
(and use the WScript's RegAdd method). If you are adding the site for a
different user, you'd need to know their SID

Re: Trusted Sites

I guess I should clarify this a little. This will be a pubic web site so
anyone in the world can hit it. This needs to be served up from the IIS
server in either an activex or script to add it to the Trusted Sites. Thanks
for the quick response.

Re: Trusted Sites

You can not add your site to someone else's trusted sites zone without their
permission.

Again, you can do this in a script, but the user will need to agree to run
the script.

Re: Trusted Sites

Hello,

It would be a huge security issue if this was possible without interaction
from the user. Imagine someone going to veryBadWebsite.com and this
website change the settings so that the website is added to Trusted sites.
Then this website would be able to execute code you do not normally want.
