DIE IE ESC DIE !!

We all love the Fox but sometimes there's no getting away from brave old Internet Exploder. Recently whilst working on a Test Sandboxed Windows2008R2 Server system this became so frustrating , "Do you want to trust microsoft.com?" message dialogs for example that I had to disable it.. Now on previous versions of Windows I knew how to do this, on 2008 it took me some time, and hence the raison d'être for this blog post. Disabling IE Enhanced Security Configuration is relatively easy, ignore all the warnings at your own risk

Follow these simple steps, open Server manager, go to the Security Information and see what's currently enabled. Then click on the right hand side you'll find "Configure IE ESC". This opens up the dialog where you can disable IE ESC.
