JavaScript required to sign in

[aspenjim]

Pretty bad when I can't access my technet subscription except w/ opera on Server 2008. I get the message "JavaScript required to sign in". Java 6 update 4 is installed. Technet is in trusted sites. In IE7 Internet Options advanced settings, JAVA Sun "use JRE 1.6.0_04 for <applet>" is checked and IE has been restarted. The "protected mode" is off.

I'm just using this as a testbed to learn 2008, so security isn't a big problem for me.

Is there any way to "soften" IE7 settings like they are in Vista for 08?

TIA

Server Manager -> Configure IE ESC -> Disable (users and/or administrators)

TY - That was pretty painless. Probably didn't even need Java for that.
