What is a trusted site?

A trusted site is a Web site that you trust not to damage your computer.

If you set the security level of your Internet browser to High so that you do not access Web sites that might damage your computer, you may be unable to access a specific Web site that you trust. To access the Web site, you can add the URL of the Web site to your Trusted site list or change your security level to Medium or lower.

NOTE: When using a high security level, you need to add the Web application URLs to your Trusted Sites list.
