    Restore Internet Explorer after Windows Police Pro and Security Tool.
    Ran into 3 machines I got back going after being taken over by thes Rouge/Scarewares. On the 4th, I have not been able to get Internet Explorer back, From what I understand, It may just be disabled in Registry.
    Any Ideas to get it back?

    I'd suggest downloading the install file from Microsoft on another machine, and reinstalling it from that.

    I had found this if all else fails:
    How to reinstall or repair Internet Explorer in Windows Vista and Windows XP
    Curious of the other way. In Registry.
    Thanks again.

    There is a way to fix it via the GUI. You can go to your control panel under Start Menu > Settings, make sure it is in classic mode and then click on "Add/Remove Programs" for XP or just "Programs" for vista. You will see on the left a link that says "Windows Components." In that list you will see a selection for Internet Explorer, make sure it is enabled and then Next, Next, Ok, Apply, etc.

    That usually puts it back where it needs to go.

    I will have to try that when I get home, I forget if this one can still access Control Panel, if not I will try:
    APPWIZ.CPL in the run box for accessing the Control Panel. Thanks
