    Hi
    I have had to do a IE11 reset and I did not take notice of the settings in Internet Explorer options can anybody refer me to a guide to set up these options for the least problems but maximum reasonable security.
    My system is Win 7 Professional 64bit, I did put IE10 in the Thread description but I am using IE11

    many thanks in advance for any replies

    Many thanks for your reply retiredlearner it is not quite what I was looking for as many of the settings are quite severe and would cause a lot of problems I think I remember a list of settings for the options for IE where listed on this site in the locked section at the top some time ago I am looking for a decent compromise between maximum security and reasonable surfing without popups every time I change pages.

    I have edited your thread title. Did you not have that option as the thread starter?

    Maybe my privileges (staff) are higher than yours ... :confused: ... but in post #1 (with the title) I just clicked Edit > Go Advanced > and edited the title.
