    Want to know how long Windows has been running? Make Windows Explorer a lot more responsive to your commands and disable Internet Explorer warnings.

Disable Security Warning Messages in Internet Explorer

I don't use Internet Explorer, but whenever I do, I get a lot of security warning messages which after a point get quite a bit annoying. I couldn't find a single switch to turn off these security messages within Internet Explorer itself. Not to be turned off by this minor setback, I dug deep and found a nice solution, here it is.

Note: This trick is applicable to Windows XP too!

1. Hit Win key + R to launch Run console.



2. Type in gpedit.msc.

3. In vista, if you haven't turned off UAC, you'll get a security prompt, just click Allow.

4. Local Computer Policy will open up, click on Computer Configuration >Administrative Templates > Windows Components > Internet Explorer. Just click on arrow next to text or double-click on it.



5. Now on the right pane, look for Turn off the Security Settings Check feature



6. Double-click on it and set it to Enabled.

hi,just mention that we dont gpedit.msc in Vista Home Premium or any other home versions. gpedit.msc is available only in Business, Enterprise and Ultimate. A lot of the security management tools have been removed in the home editions. Try opening mmc.exe and then add the Group Policy snap-ins. I don't know if they are removed as well, but it is worth a shot.

" In previous Windows you'd probably need a separate software to tell you that." Hey we can check system boot time in previous versions of windows by typing "systeminfo" in command prompt.
