    I know  how to access IE through a COM object. I would like however to actually do a few things that I can't figure out.
    How can I change settings on the computer with administrator privileges remotely. Out side of GPO how can I use power shell to change the active X security settings and such?

    Are you limited to PowerShell v1 or have access to v2.  I've always wondered if there was a way to use DCOM to remotely manage a COM object...

    If you can use v2, you can use PowerShell remoting to manage IE locally through COM, while passing whatever credentials are required.
