Prior to 8.1, when the Adams Web server is not identified as a local intranet set web browsers will block the installation of Adams Bridge. To force the Adams Web server to be identified as a local intranet site set the group policy below.

Follow these steps to create a group policy object for the domain that will set the Local Intranet Sites list in IE.

This is the domain group policy equivalent of the following:

IE > Internet Options > Settings > Internet Options > Security > Local intranet > Sites > Advanced

or
