Add a trusted site to a locked Internet Explorer 8 zone
I am controlling the zones within IE via a GPO but I have machines outwith the office that don't come back in very often and there is a requirement to add a trusted site to the IE zone but it is locked atm.
Is there anyway as an administrator (I can remote onto the machine and sign on as admin/the user, etc) for me to add a zone to the Trusted Sites list without having to pull the machine back in or indeed to update the entire GPO for all users?
Thanx

Superb...done exactly what I want. The admin route didn't work unfortunately this time around (I did try that before but thanx for the suggestion).
Yes I do not think that approach will work because it's a current user setting in the registry. So you would have authenticate as an admin then open regedit select a branch then file - open hive browse to their ntuser.dat then... phew i'll stop here the script is the way to go !

On the ie icon right click select run as Administrator
type admin credeintials and then ie should open with Admin security settings applyed.
