TSGL: unspeficied potential security risk ?

Kathryn,
I don't have IE7 therefore am not really sure about how it's done there. With IE6 however you can add sites like this:
Go to Tools | Options | security. Select Intranet, click on 'Sites' and add the network address there - at least that's what I would try. I'm getting a small dialog box there where I can tick the Include all network paths (UNCs)' (or similar).
Maybe others can help you write that link appropriately if you need to and run into problems.

None of the tips worked. The closest I can get is from this page:
http://shellrevealed.com/forums/thread/4229.aspx where it says:
Below answer to problem begs the question "how do I add the server name to the list of intranet hosts?"
"I have just come across this issue after installing ie7 on an otherwise fully updated XP system.
It seems that the mapped network drive is being detected as part of the Internet Zone rather then part of the IntrAnet zone.
How has the ie7 update changed the way that windows determines what is part of the Intranet zone. I have it set to automatically determine if another computer is part of the Intranet zone. The server in question is part of the same workgroup and is on the same 192.168.1.xxx subnet.
Anyway to get rid of the message I manually added the server's name to the list of intranet hosts and all is well again"
So, the question I have now, is How do I "manually add the server name to the list of intranet hosts"?
