Microsoft Internet Explorer

Version 7.0 of the Microsoft Internet Explorer browser is installed locally on the computer. The Internet options settings for the browser have been preselected at the factory to limit writing to the flash memory. These settings should not be modified. You can access another browser through an ICA or RDP account if you need more browser resources.

Service Pack 2 improves Microsoft Internet Explorer 7.0 security by providing more control over the execution of all content, including a built-in facility to manage pop-up windows. Service Pack 2 also prevents scripts from moving or resizing windows and status bars to hide them from view or obscure other windows.

Windows XPe Service Pack 2 added a feature to Windows Messenger that blocks unsafe file transfers. For a list of files generally considered unsafe, see the white paper titled “Information About the Unsafe File List in Internet Explorer 6” on the Microsoft Web site at http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/.
