Dear Blade81,
here is the regexport content,
REGEDIT4

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Internet Explorer]

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\PhishingFilter]
"Enabled"=dword:00000000

[Blade81]

Hi,

Please replace fixes.bat file with following contents and then run it as you did with previous one:
@echo off
regedit /a c:\regExport.txt "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings"

Post back c:\regExport.txt contents.

Dear Blade81

I hope you will be fine.
Just for some background info,I downloaded this version of internet explorer from yahoo site,do you think that might be of some significance?

Here is the 2nd regexport file:

REGEDIT4

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings]
"Security_HKLM_only"=dword:00000001

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\Cache]

Hi,

Probably it was the infection that twiddled with the settings. Let's see if this works



Save text below as fix.reg on Notepad (save it as all files (*.*)) on the Desktop.

REGEDIT4

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings]
"Security_HKLM_only"=-

It should look like this ->

Doubleclick fix.reg, press Yes and ok.

How're the IE settings now?

You are good.
The options in internet explorer are now selectable.
Thanks.
Sincerely yours,
Farid

When I try to login to yahoo or hotmail for email ,firefox simply crahes .Browsing other sites is ok but I cant check emails on firefox,any suggestions?

[Blade81]

Hi,

I recommend to uninstall Firefox you have there and then install Firefox 3.5.2 here.

[faridanjum]

Dear Blade81
I am really obliged by your selfless help.

Thanks for the tip,now firefox is working fine after uninstalling and getting the new one.

I would take this oppurtunity to invite to Paksitan whenever its possible for you and I would be more than happy to offer you free accomodation and meals in the capital city Islamabad.

Please feel free to contact me via email <--address removed-->

Thanks for your offer, Farid . I will keep that in mind if I travel that part of the world.
