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.<br/> 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?© 2009 Microsoft Corporation.
