We may end up having to do it that way, but I was hoping that it was something as simple as a GPO setting that would allow them to get the thing started.

Might be the fastest fix until you can get it tested and properly deployed...and find out who installed it, kick their face in and revoke their elevated rights :-) 2009/9/25 Jim Slattery <[email protected]> I have a group of users that are locked down pretty tight (call center), but IE8 got installed on a couple of the machines by supervisors or users with elevated permissions. Now when the regular call center users try to open IE, it won't start (maybe because they don't have the rights to run that initial configuration bit where you set up the browser for the first use). I've tried Computer Configuration/Administrative Templates/Internet Explorer/Prevent Performance of First Run Customize settings in GPO, but that didn't fix it like I'd hoped. Anyone else have this issue with IE8? I'm digging through GPO and Googlin' now, but if you've run into this before, I'd appreciate the help. Thanks!
