Answer 2

You can control this via the registry.

 

See:-  http://support.microsoft.com/kb/182569

 

The zone value you need to modify is 1609 however I would not recommend you modify this value for the internet zone.  Bear in mind that this will affect not only your embedded browser but also the standard IE browser as well.

Hi Anthony ,

I Know That i can disable it Via registry but this application will be used by a lot of
so via registry i dont think best solution maybe they will think something else...
& AV will detect you accessing to the registry to modify some data so notifcation....
i am searching something like an API or something else to do it

Thanks

Answer 4

The browser's API for managing this sort of this is the Internet Zone Manager

 

IInternetZoneManager:etZoneActionPolicy would give you an API to modify the zone and policy ID I posted earlier.  However this still going modify the registry.

Answer 5

Hi Anthony,

if i use this API do the user get notification about Modification via the registry ?
like if we do it directly on the registry

Thanks
