Cannot click HTTP links in Office 2003 w/ IE8
Hello,
I am currently running the following: Windows XP SP3 + post Office 2003 SP3 + post IE 6/8 GPO - Run Only Allowed Applications Okay, here is my situation and I will try to be as clear as possible. I am updating some systems from IE6 to IE8 but after the install of IE8 I lose the ability to click http links in Office 2003. Now, IE8 can launch directly with no problem (as specified by my "run only allowed applications" GPO) and I can call upon IE8 through Office (Word) by clicking links in the "Other Task Panes" section (news about office, online help, etc). Office WILL launch IE8. If I open a Word document with a link or an email with a link I get the following error - "This operation has been canceled due to restrictions on this computer. Please contact your system administrator". Now, I HAVE done the following: KB 310049 - please DO NOT refer me to this Set program access in Control Panel I have replaced the registry key HKEY_Local_Machine\Software\Classes\htmlfile\shell \open\command I have confirmed the associations in the registry for .html, .htm, .shtml - IE6 and IE8 are the only browsers EVER to be installed. No FF or Chrome or Opera I have reinstalled Office I have gone through both the IE8 and Office 2003 ADM's multiple times I have removed the IE8 and Office 2003 ADM's I have ran Procmon to see if something else is called - nothing I have Not Configured the "DO NOT run these applications" in case there is a conflict with the 5-6 programs that shouldn't be ran. There are only 2 ways that I can get IE8 to launch when a http link is clicked in Office: 1. NOT CONFIGURE "Run only allowed applications" --- YES "iexplore.exe" is listed in the allowed applications 2. right click Word/Outlook, run-as Administrator If I uninstall IE8 and it rolls back to IE6, everything is fine. Help is GREATLY appreciated as I have been working on this for the past 2 days and I am going crazy here. |
