At home my laptop uses Blue Sky satellite Internet and at work uses AT&T
Internet. Coincidentally, the Blue Sky Internet is accessed through a
Linksys wireless router AND AT&T access is through an identical router. WEP
is used on Blue Sky, no security at all at AT&T. Sometimes, after being on
Blue Sky and then getting on AT&T, I receive the following error when
opening IE: "Access Denied (policy denied), your system policy has denied
access to the requested URL." This happens every so often, not all the
time. I make no changes anywhere on the PC to cause this. I have searched
the Internet and it seems there are others that experience this problem.
But NO ONE has the solution. Sometimes it corrects itself. Dell had me
roll back my PC to the previous day and the PC will get online okay. It
seems to me that the issue is going from one ISP to the other. I would like
to know how to correct it when it happens without rolling back the OS (XP
PRO). This error just effects IE, not my sending/receiving mail via Outlook
2003. Does anyone know how to correct this? Thanks, Diane

It's not clear where the error message originates.
E.g. if it is a web message it could be a message from your web server.
If you are networked it could still be a message from a server.
Otherwise it is a message from your PC. For the latter case
you could try using ProcMon to get more clues.

BTW I think that this has more do to with your OS Security than with IE.


Good luck

I'm a relative novice at anything beyond step by step instructions. How
does one do the rollback?

At the moment I've got a relatively new Dell laptop that is completely
useless.

Any new fixes?
