security setting in IE

I was reading through the instuctions for setting security levels in the doc fro i-spyad. I set just about everything to disable......now when I try to click on "tools" then "internet options," I get the following message: This operation has been canceled due to restrictions on your computer. Please contact your system administrator.
I seem to have overdone it....but I am my system administrator and I have no idea how to undo this so I can get into my options. Can anyone help? Thanks... Fanore....

Any chance that you have Spybot or another program installed and have set it to lock your homepage page?

capt -- Yes, I was also setting up spybot, along with other protections programs.....and I did set it to lock my homepage...I'll try unlocking that option.....but, I set my security setting after setting spybot, and it let me in the first time...it was after setting my restrict site setting to high under custom setting that this started....
