Security and Privacy Settings
On this page of the Windows® Internet Explorer® Customization Wizard 9, you can manage security zones, privacy settings, and content ratings. This helps you control the types of content that your users' computers can access on the Internet. You can also set the level of privacy regarding cookies for your users. You can adjust the settings to block content that may be considered offensive or otherwise inappropriate in a corporate setting. If you installed the Corporate version of Internet Explorer Administration Kit 9 (IEAK 9), after you deploy the custom Internet Explorer 9 package, you can update these settings using IEAK Profile Manager.
