Part of DTBI649 - Restricting Pop Up windows - IExplore
Associated with IA controls: ECSC-1
Internet Explorer allows scripts to programmatically open, resize, and reposition various types of windows. Often, disreputable Web sites will resize windows to either hide other windows or force you to interact with a window that contains malicious code. The Scripted Window Security Restrictions security feature restricts pop-up windows and prohibits scripts from displaying windows in which the title and status bars are not visible to the user or hide other windows’ title and status bars. If you enable the Scripted Window Security Restrictions\Internet Explorer Processes policy setting, pop-up windows and other restrictions apply for Windows Explorer and Internet Explorer processes. If you disable or do not configure this policy setting, scripts can continue to create pop-up windows and windows that hide other windows. This guide recommends you configure this setting to Enabled to help prevent malicious Web sites from controlling your Internet Explorer windows or fooling users into clicking on the wrong window.
The policy value for Computer Configuration -> Administrative Templates -> Windows Components -> Internet Explorer -> Security Features -> Scripted Window Security Restrictions -> "Internet Explorer Processes" will be set to “Enabled”. Procedure: Use the Windows Registry Editor to navigate to the following key: HKLM\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main\FeatureControl\FEATURE_WINDOW_RESTRICTIONS Criteria: Set the value iexplore.exe to REG_SZ = 1.
Lavender hyperlinks in small type off to the right (of CSS
class id

globally unique URIs for each document and item. Copy the
link location and paste anywhere you need to talk
unambiguously about these things.
You can obtain data about documents and items in other
formats. Simply provide an HTTP header Accept:
text/turtle
or
Accept: application/rdf+xml
