Hello Jerry,

In Internet Options under the Security tab, click on each zone icon at the top to double check that the Protected Mode option is checked in each zone. Be sure to close and reopen all instances of IE8 to apply the changes afterwards. You may not have it checked in one of them, or did not open and close IE8 afterwards before.



Hope this helps,
Shawn

thanks shawn for the reply i found the trouble it was off in the security center in the control panel. its a new computer and a guy from best buy geek squad was here sunday checking my system over and i guess he turn it off in the control panel even though it was checked under security.
