What is the "secure domains" section of the immunization database?

Does it add trusted sites to the safe zone in IE or something?

It's more like the Windows HOSTS file that it adds malicious domains too.

What the Immunization feature does is that it offers passive protection and protects your browser. This feature will add malicious domains to your browser domains so it will not accidentally visit a malicious site and thus preventing you from possibly getting infected.

Ok, that's not my question. I understand what the immunization feature is.

I'm asking specifically what the entries labelled "secure domain" on the immunization list are in reference to, as it's a new addition to SB1.6 which I've only just recently started using.

I'm still not sure what these entries are actually doing - do they function any differently from the other types of immunization entries (aside from the HOSTS file which I don't use)?

Domain immunization entries add entries to the system's registry that place sites to the restricted sites zone by domain (site) name. The Secure Domain entries add a duplicate set of those restricted sites zone entries into registry keys that are used by Microsoft's Internet Explorer Enhanced Security feature.
