MS made it easy to do this with IE maintenance Security zones preferences. Then they trash it for this crap.
The only way to do this is through Site to Zone assignment lists now? Doing this denies users the ability to add their own sites. I understand i can still do it by forcing registry entries on users pcs, but you know it's 2013, not 1999, and this isnt NT4.
Not only that, the older, better options have disappeared on my other 2008 r2 DCs. Theyre still listed in the policy Settings, but i navigate to them in Gpedit and they arent there. So i cant even log into a 2008r2 server and use the ie maintenance options anymore.
Frankly, this should have been listed in big red letters somewhere.
Then there is IEAK 10. what a gd abomination.
