What exactly happens when the user tries to launch IE?

<div>
<div class="content wysiwyg-content">
My predecessor disabled IE in terminal services and one of our remote users needs access to Internet in a terminal session. &nbsp;I can't find group policy enabled to prevent it, nor are there any proxies set in IE preventing it. &nbsp;I can use IE as admin, however the user cannot. &nbsp;I have reviewed all the settings in Group Policy Editor. &nbsp;Where might IE be disabled? &nbsp;We are using Server 2003 R2 on the terminal server.
