2. Participant Workstation, Network & Security IMO_MAN_0024 Microsoft Internet Explorer Configuration for MPI and Portal 40 For the supported versions of Microsoft Internet Explorer to work properly with the Market Participant Interface and Portal there are a number of configuration settings that should be made. This includes configuration items in both the Advanced and Security tabs under Internet Options menu selection in Internet Explorer. It is important to note that the settings are unique to each user profile for IE on a workstation. Therefore, if multiple users with separate logins share a workstation, settings will need to be checked and altered as required for each user. It is also important to recognize that Internet Explorer 6.0 has differences in configuration settings between Windows XP SP1 and SP2 and so does Internet Explorer 7.0 between Windows XP SP1 and SP2 and Vista. These differences are documented by the IESO as required. 41 The browser settings are essentially the same for IE 6.0 and 7.0 with minor differences when using Windows XP–SP2 and Vista. However under Vista, Internet Explorer 7.0 is using the new Protected Mode capability for the various security zones as described at: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb250462.aspx. The recommendation at this time is to put the MPI, Portal and IESO corporate web site URL‟s into the „Trusted sites‟ zone when using Vista and turn off Protected Mode for this zone only. The MPI will not function correctly at this time with Protected Mode turned on and logout will not function correctly from the MPI unless the IESO corporate web site in included in the same zone as the MPI. Vista enforces the opening of a new browser window every time the security zone changes Internet Options - Advanced 42 A number of parameters may need to be set for Advanced Internet Options. To do this: 1. Under the IE Tools menu select Internet Options 2. Select the Advanced tab. See Figure 2-1. (IE / Windows XP shown) 8 Public Issue 21.1 – March 15, 2010 - estimated
