IE security menu grayed out

julien -  
 true lies -
Hello, so here is my problem:
When I go to Internet Explorer -> Tools -> Internet Options -> Security, the “Customise” and “Default Level” buttons are greyed out. Similarly when I go to “Trusted sites”, everything is greyed out, and as a result I cannot add a trusted site in Internet Explorer.
Another problem, probably related to the first, is in “Windows Firewall” the option to enable or disable XP firewall is greyed out, so I cannot enable the firewall.
It seems there is something that locks the configuration at this level but I don’t see what it is, nor how to fix it?
If you have already seen these symptoms, let me know, please. 
Configuration: Windows XP PRO SP2 Internet Explorer 6.0

    Hello, verify that you have administrator rights by going to the control panel, user accounts.

    Yes, of course the manipulation is done as an administrator, the problem doesn’t seem to come from that, I would lean more towards a somewhat twisted group strategy but I can’t find it.

    Hello Julien,

    Are you in a domain where you’re working solo on a single workstation?

    Hi Fyrjhaag, yes I’m on a domain, but it’s grayed out even when I log in as local administrator on the machine.
    I checked the link you gave me and it doesn’t say how to disable the Security menu.
    thanks

    Hello, check in the registry if you have this
    HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ SOFTWARE\ Policies\ Microsoft\ Internet Explorer\ Restrictions
    If yes, delete Restrictions and restart the computer
