    Default no options to 'Lock IE ...' in IE tweaks

    Hi all,

    When I go to the proxy settings in MSIE or in Chrome, I get this message: "access to this feature has been disabled by a restriction set by your system administrator"

    After Googling a bit, it turns out this is most commonly due to either two registry keys being set, or due to Spybot settings. I checked and I don't have the registry keys, so I turned to Spybot.

    The Spybot documentation at http://www.safer-networking.org/en/faq/24.html mentions this:
    Select Tools in the left bar, then IE tweaks.
    There you will see a group Recommended miscellaneous locks. Untick the checkboxes in front of both Lock IE... options.
    However, I don't have those options. I'm using version 1.6.2.46, and in IE tweaks, I only see the "lock hosts file" and the custom title options. The attached screenshot illustrates it.

    Am I doing something wrong? Or has this changed recently in Spybot, and has the documentation not been updated yet?

    Thanks a lot,
    Ludovic
