Trusted sites

1 Go the Web site you want to add to a zone.

2 Press ALT+D to select the Web address, and press CTRL+C to copy it to the Windows Clipboard.
This saves you from having to type it later.

3 On the Internet Explorer Tools menu, click Internet Options. Click the Security tab, and then click the security zone where you want to add the site: Trusted sites.

4 Because all sites are by default already in the Internet zone, you cannot add Web sites to it.

5 Click the Sites button in the image below.

6 In the Add this Web site to the zone box, press CTRL+V to paste in the Web address.

7 Click the Add button.

In the Trusted Sites window, make sure the check box on the lower left hand corner is NOT selected.

Note: If Internet Explorer asks for confirmation, you may be trying to add a site that is not secure. Internet Explorer will accept only sites to the Trusted list that make a secure connection—for example, secure banking or shopping sites. To identify such a site, look for https:// in the Web address.

If you want to add an unsecured Web site (for example, a site that does not have https:// in the Web address), click to remove the check in the Require server verification box.

Be careful! Only do this for Web sites whose content you trust 100 percent.

8 If you want to add more sites to this zone now, you can go back to step 6 and type any additional Web addresses into the Add this Web site to the zone box, and then click the Add button.

9 Click OK twice.
