I can not see zone My Computer in IE Security Settings.
How can I add zone, so I could control ActiveX stuff from local drives or CD content?

Thanks
David

Are you trying to secure non website material? You can limit access to local web-site material by using the local intranet settings.

I saw My Computer Icon in IE Security Settings on Win 2000 machine...
IE 5.5
There must be a way to have one on NT as well...

You can find the zone settings in the registry in:
HKCU/Software/Microsoft/Windows/Current Version/Internet Settings/Zones/0

If you set all you intranet settings to what you require and copy all the changes from
HKCU/Software/Microsoft/Windows/Current Version/Internet Settings/Zones/1
(Your intranet zone settings) this will change you settings. There is a Technet article on what each value in this hive does - Q182569 in technet.
