    How do I set exceptions for IE 9 security levels?


    I have IE 9 security set for Medium-High, which is great 99% of the time. However, I use an older version of Autodesk Maya which uses Explorer to access its help files. Every time I open it it gives me a warning about scripts and Active X, and I have to manually allow blocked content. Is there some way to tell Explorer to make an exception for Maya help (or whatever)?

    Thanks folks!

    If you trust the site and program, you can add it to the Trusted sites security zone. See the following Tutorial and follow the instructions from here:

    OK Dwarf, that looks prety straightforward, and thanks a whole lot! One question: The site in question is on my local hard drive:

    C:\Program Files\Autodesk\Maya8.5\docs\Maya8.5\en_US\index.html

    Will that make any difference?

    Ooh! Lookie! I got a little dot and I'm "skilled!"
