Sometimes I really wonder who writes some of these KB articles--and do they get vetted for readability? I agree with you Justin. Totally non-sensical. I'm not sure what they're trying to say but the bottom line is, when you use preference mode, you have to additionally lockdown the areas that you specify in IE Maintenance using Admin. Template policy if you really don't want the user to change the setting after its initially been delivered.
In any case, what happens when you enable Preference mode is you get this additional set of ADMs that are loaded into the IE Maintenance namespace. Specifically inetcorp.adm and inetset.adm. However, these ADMs haven't been updated in a while and in the testing I've done, certain things just don't work in IE6--like specifying IE TIF size. However, I did just test the setting you are interested in within inetcorp.adm and it works just fine on IE 6.
