Turn off boring IE information bar

I am writing an automated test for an active X control, the IE information bar become a very boring problem: it require some manual operation to make the web page continue...and the worst is, IE will report the web page has loaded when those information bar show up and wait for your input! :(

Though it's possible to turn off some security check for the active X controls, another boring information bar will tell you "Your current security setting put your computer at risk...", you can't get rid of the information bar after all!!!

Found some people are already talking this, unfortunately most of them are not work on IE7. (maybe they are for IE 6)

Finally I found a solution that worked!!!

How to get rid of the Annoying Information Bar in IE7

This tutorial is written for those experienced computer users who understand how to configure Internet Explorer Security Settings, and what all the settings mean. Internet Explorer 7 DOES improve security, however, for IT professionals who know what they are doing, IE7’s “improved security” is annoying and we can do without the idiotic “bloop” sounds and frustrating information bar popups

Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting

Windows XP Pro: Go to Start->Run->gpedit.msc Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting

Double-click the “Turn off the Security Settings Check Feature” entry and choose “Enable Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting

Explanation: This policy setting turns off the Security Settings Check feature, which checks Internet Explorer security settings to determine when the settings put Internet Explorer at risk. ( NOTE: this means that the annoying bar will not pop up) NO MORE ANNOYING INFORMATION BAR!!! If you enable this policy setting, the security settings check will not be performed. If you disable or do not configure this policy setting, the security settings check will be performed.

Please note that, this only disable the information bar of the check of security setting, it will not remove the information bar of the active x's warnings, so you still need to set the custom security level in the Internet Options to disable those Active X related information bars.
