Internet Explorer and Windows registry

[c83]

I want programaticaly to change the IE security settings for Intrante Sites.
IE Menu: Tools->Internet options->security(Tab )->Local Intranet ->sites
i found out that IE stores data in Registry at

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\ZoneMap

and there i-am writing keys:

IntranetName  = dword:00000001
ProxyByPass   = dword:00000001
UNCAsIntranet = dword:00000001

.

Theese keys appears after we setup this from Intrenet Options, but when i create them programaticaly he does not accepts them(she deletes them).
It seems that IE stores data somewere else too..

This problem i having and with adding a new site to the Intranet Zone.
Can someone help me??

You might try Process Monitor to see what is taking place in IE. It's from SysInternals which M$ took over, but still provides a nice array of cool utilities free of charge.

Here is how I would do it: Have IE set up how you expect it to be when you get to it. Export the registry. Make your changes. Export the registry again. Use REG to compare the two, and export the modified keys. From then on, all you need to do is import your registry .reg file.

I must say that this is a good idea, but what about this REG application to compare *.reg files??

REG is the command line registry tool, and it comes with Windows.
Open up a console, and type REG to see a list of it's options.

REG COMPARE can not compare registry files, it compares only registry keys.

My apologies. You could still use it by comparing the keys (and subkeys /s) with that of a different user.
Or you could use REG COPY to save a before and after snapshot and then compare the two.
Or you can use a tool such as windiff to compare the .reg files.
