The Advanced tab of the Internet Options dialog box, allows you to configure a variety of Internet Explorer settings. The exact options that are available on this tab vary, depending on whether additional components have been installed. You can right-click any particular setting and select What’s This? to see a description of the setting.
Advanced settings are divided into categories such as Accessibility, Browsing, Multimedia, and Security. Following are some of the important advanced settings you should be aware of as a DST:
■ Browsing: Enable Personalized Favorites Menu When enabled, Favorites
that you have not recently accessed are hidden from view and are accessible by
clicking the down arrow at the bottom of the Favorites menu.
■ Browsing: Enable Third-Party Browser Extensions (requires restart) Clearing
this option disables non-Microsoft browser extensions, which can be useful when
troubleshooting computer pop-up errors and problems with Internet Explorer. Often, browser extensions can
cause Internet Explorer to crash or have problems displaying Web pages.
■ Browsing: Enable Visual Styles On Buttons And Controls In Web
Pages When enabled, button and control styles in Internet Explorer match those
set in Display properties.
■ Browsing: Notify When Downloads Complete Enabling this option causes
Internet Explorer to display a message at the end of a file download, indicating
that the download is complete.
■ Browsing: Show Friendly HTTP Error Messages Web servers send error messages
to browsers when problems occur. When this option is enabled, Internet
Explorer will display a detailed message outlining potential solutions for the problem.
When this option is disabled, Internet Explorer shows only the error number
and name of the error.
■ Browsing: Use Inline Autocomplete When this option is enabled, Internet
Explorer completes what you are typing in the address bar based on previous
entries.
■ Multimedia: Enable Automatic Image Resizing When this option is enabled,
Internet Explorer automatically resizes large images so that they fit in the browser
window.
■ Multimedia: Play Animations In Web Pages Enabling this option allows Internet
Explorer to display animated pictures. These animations are often slow to load
and distracting. Consider clearing this option for smoother access.
■ Browsing: Underline Links This option controls the way Internet Explorer displays
hyperlinks. Available options are Always (links are always underlined),
Hover (links are underlined when the mouse is moved over them), or Never
(never underlines links).
■ Multimedia: Show Image Download Placeholders When this option is
enabled, Internet Explorer draws placeholders for images while they are downloading.
This process allows the items on the page to be properly positioned
before images are fully downloaded.
■ Multimedia: Show Pictures When this option is enabled, Internet Explorer
shows pictures normally. For users with slow connections, images can take a long
time to download, so you can increase perceived performance by clearing this
option.
■ Printing: Print Background Colors And Images When this option is selected,
background colors and images will be printed, which can slow down printing and
affect the quality of printing (depending on the printer’s capabilities).
■ Security: Empty Temporary Internet Files Folder When Browser Is
Closed Enabling this option causes Internet Explorer to delete temporary Internet
files when you close Internet Explorer.
■ Security: Warn If Changing Between Secure And Not Secure Mode When
enabled, Internet Explorer will warn the user when switching from a secure site to
a nonsecure site. This warning can prevent the user from accidentally providing
personal information across a nonsecure connection.
Security: Warn If Forms Submitted Is Being Redirected Enabling this option causes Internet Explorer to warn the user if information entered into a form is being redirected to a website other than the one that is being viewed.
