No, I'm pointing to where you can download the IE Administration Kit, which lets you manage IE in a controlled environment. I don't really need to prove anything to anyone; you can find out for yourself or not as you choose! You can customize IE functionality before distribution, and using other MS technologies you can easily distribute patches, new policies, etc. > I will agree that Firefox is not that easy to maintain in an > Enterprise environment (but it can be done).

With IEAK, you can, for example, disable ActiveX and Active Scripting for every unapproved site. You can also implement other controls outside of IE, such as having users run without administrative rights. This is relatively common in large, security-conscious enterprises, in my experience.
