Consider the following scenarios on a computer that is running Windows Vista or Windows Server 2008:
Scenario 1
You disable access to Windows Media Player by using the Set Program Access and Computer Defaults settings. However, after you manually start and configure Windows Media Player, the Windows Media Player icon reappears on the Start menu.
Scenario 2
You disable access to Internet Explorer by using the Set Program Access and Computer Defaults settings. However, "Internet Explorer" is still mentioned in several user interface (UI) phrases in Windows Media Player when it is not expected.
For example, "Internet Explorer" is mentioned in the following UI phrases:
UI location: Tools - Options - Security - Security Zone UI phrase: "The Player uses Internet Explorer Security zone settings to display Web content, such as that provided in the Guide and online stores."
UI location: Tools - Options - Privacy - Cookies UI phrase: "The Player uses Internet Explorer to communicate connection and logging information to servers when streaming content and is used by content providers to provide services. Modifying your cookie settings will affect the content you can access."
