In XP/2003 I can turn off the "Internet Explorer Enhanced Security Configuration is enabled" in IE in the Add/Remove programs.How do I do this in Windows Server 2003 / Longhorn?Ian

Found it finally.Go to Server ManagerClick the top item in the tree to the left "Server Manager"On the page that appears, go to "Security Information"Look for "Configure IE ESC" on the right.Perhaps IE ESC could be renamed to "IE Security"

Why is not just in ....Internet explored security options.....DUH ...another common sense out the window scenario..... It shoud bea checkbox on the main security tab......you are welcome Microsoft....please send me a check.....

This hiding of features is what bugs me about Vista and Server 2008. Things that used to be easy to find are scattered around. A matrix or search toolof how it was done in a prior OS and the same task is done in the current OS would lead to better adaption of Vista and 2008. For example there is no Add/Remove Programs an Windows Features in 2008 like it is in 2003, XP Pro, 2000 or Win98. Moving it to features at least requires a breadcrumb in the prior location. Stuff that was so easy with a Right click Properties is now 3-4 more layers down.

I have just installed Server 2008 for the first time. But the documentation is still of Server 2003 vintage. res://iesetup.dll/IESechelp.htm#manage on my system says: Go to Control Panel and then Add or Remove Programs. I assume it's Program and Features. Then it says go to Add/Remove Windows Components. I assume it's now Turn Windows features on or off. Well, it's nowhere to be found under Turn Windows features on or off.

Sorry to confuse. I did see the answer by Ian Vink. Posted my message hoping that the powers that be see it and will update the doucmentation.

After setting both admins and users to off, users found in Remote Desktop group on our Terminal Services Server still has IESC enabled. Is there any other places to check? GPO shows no added config for IESC. It's running win2008 ent 32-bit.

fixed by adding local gpo. http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/winserverGP/thread/26455b36-26bd-4a44-b594-5a9f67bcd8df#_Q2:_How_can

On Server 2003, this option is the best way to disable enhanced security on I.E.T Beaucage

Remove "Internet Explorer Enhanced Security" using Add\Remove programs Don't bother to try and configure it.
