For all user using Internet Explorer 7
The version of IE7 for Vista adds the Protected Mode, which allows Web sites to access only the Temporary Internet Files folder on your PC. According to Microsoft, this feature is on by default for the Internet, Intranet, and Restricted zones, but disabled for the Trusted Sites and Local Machine zones. On my machine it was enabled for all zones.
How to set Protected Mode in IE7?

- Click “Tools”
- Then select “Internet Options”
- Select “Security” tab
- Click select checked mark “Enable Protected Mode (requires restarting Internet Explorer)”
