Group Policy to disable IE7 Phishing Setting

[suseli]

I have a LAN with Win2003 & Win XP Clients.

Clients has Internet Explorer 7 installed. When clients logon a message prompts regarding Microsoft Internet Explorer Phishing Settings askin to Turn on or Turn off the filter.

Can it be disabled via group policy so that it wont be prompted when clients logon.

Might want to try the GP ADM template for IE7 available here:

I havent tried it yet so i am not sure if it covers the phishing option or not.

Hope this helps,

Well i went and installed it and what you want is there. you need to copy the .adm file from where the msi installs it(program files\microsoft group policy), to winnt\inf. it will over right the old template so back it up if you ever want to see it again. go into your gp editor and its under user config\admin templates\internet explorer and its called turn off managing phishing filter.

Thanks Raodki11, i managed to copy adm temp it to c:\winnt\inf folder.

When i opened the group policy console i got a message prompt
"The following entry in the [strings] section is too long and has been truncated."

Is this normal?

No not normal, there is a fix for that from MS, let me see if i can track it down. just click through it, may have to click ok 30 times but it will stop and you can work on the GP.
