    I have a client who enforces the policy in IE that all local intranet sites be loaded in the Compatibility View.

    Unfortunately our webapp doesn't support this and gives alot of issues in the comp. view. Is there a way to specifically exclude a site from this policy without having to include it in our code ?

    In Group Policy, you can use the Site to Zone assignment list to place the site in question into the trusted sites zone instead. Compatibility view is disabled by default in that zone.

    To tell Internet Explorer not to use Compatibility Mode on your site, use the following meta tag (or a variation thereof) in the head section of your site:

    <meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=9; IE=8; IE=EDGE" />

    Note that this tag must be the first tag inside the head tag. For more information, visit: Specifying legacy document modes

    Are there any Registry Settings or GP's that I can use to ensure that View - Explorer Bar - Folders option is disabled in IE 6.0 for a particular user alone.

    We have already disabled the Address Bar, F3 for Search Options, View - Explorer Bar - Search option, Ctrl + E

    Well, I am not able to find out an exact way of disabling the View-->Explorer Bar-->Folders, but if you run Internet Explorer in Kiosk mode, it will not display the Menu Bar and users will not be able to choose it.

    Now, what about keyboard shortcuts. I am not aware of any, and neither does Google. So, I guess that would be the best possible solution.

    Only one hitch though, how will you quit the session? You have to use Alt + F4 to quit it.
